26. Yeah, they did. Changed from price inflation to wage inflation as I recall.

Wage inflation was lower by a % or two. This will change it back with a different way of computing consumer price index. It may make a 1-2% difference in COLA--to me worrying about this seems picayune considering the long term solvency of SS.
