We have only been given a quick blush on it at this point. They are going to front load the fist couple of months, because of bills coming due (for this program) and needed to make sure they had money on hand. They did say they would start to back it off more than likely in Feburary. This was weeks ago and will now ask for a more detailed update.

Here is the key gang. We pretty much have the same guys running this furlough fund that ran the last one. The last one ended pretty close to being on the money. Last time they ended up refunding an average of $12 per person. That is pretty good planning, and thus I trust (but will verify) that they have learned their mistakes from the last time they did this and are tweeking the way they do business this time.

So far, with their past performance, I give them credit they know what they are doing. Again, they hit it last time to a average $12 refund and they did refund the money as they said they would.
