What 222 was all about - a scenario

[Heynony]

Dave has been gradually attriting H cards for two years now. We've had
lots of reports about people getting sent new HU cards. Attriting is a
new verb I just made up, meaning to achieve attrition.

Dave figures to accelerate the attrition somewhat, find more excuses to
replace the Hs. Since nobody has been mailing the old Hs back anyway
they also decide to change policy and facetiously just tell people to
throw them away. So somebody said "we should do an information piece on
this to cut down the calls we're already getting and so we don't get
more as we accelerate the process."

So they do this 222 piece.

But none of this is any big deal at all.

No card swap (except a _continuation_ of the gradual attrition). No mass
mailing, just a staggered, scattered few as people are switched from H
to HU for a variety of reasons. No change at all in the data stream is
contemplated near term. The language about your card not working within
a few weeks of the swap simply means YOUR PARTICULAR H CARD, which will
be blacklisted, NOT any change in the data stream itself.

So, no swap, H card still in the data stream. Net effect =zero.

Was there anything in the 222 piece that contradicts this
interpretation? If not, might be a good time to buy some cheap Hs.

You can't make up new verbs. Do you think your Websters or something.

Hey-making up new verbs is OK with me. It's the people that start
pronouncing established words and names differently, for now reason. Like
nuclear. At some point it started being pronounced new-cue-ler. And Puerto
Rico-I remember when it was Port-O Rico.
And how about that douchebag from 90210, Ian Zeiring who scolds people for
not pronouncing his name 'Eye-on'.
Yeah... my name is spelled D-A-N... but it's actually pronounced Dilbert.

"Attriting" is not new; it may not be in the dictionary, but it has been a
useful verb for decades in the US military...

Exactly the point I was making earlier......they did this spot to cut down
on the "how do I..." calls they get from subs that are being switched from H
to HU and it backfired by generating even more calls, so the show was
dropped. --BB
