I was wondering two things:
(1) Would it be possible to adjust Amsnag to kick out point costs instead of or alongside dollar costs? I know Amsnag works in some odd way so I don't know if this will be possible.

(2) As a follow-up to (1), would it be possible to work something up to color-code point redemptions as to whether they're <35 points per dollar or in a "penalty bucket"? I'm doing some manual data collection on a few select routes, but being able to do batch sampling would be interesting...and it would be useful for quick-checking if the price is higher than it should be (e.g. 69 points/dollar).
 
Hey, thanks for creating Amsnag, by the way. Wait - are you the one who created it? I assumed that by the "bicycling" in your bio and the bike mention in the URL, and of course, the way you addressed a question about it above. I just learned about it a few days ago and it sure does cut down on many page loads and data entry fields on the Amtrak website. Very useful!
 
The problem is that I've never been able to decipher the new fare results page. Perhaps if a JS expert could PM me and answer a few questions to get me started.
