I started a secondary trial account sometime in january and I made my first payment for this account on 2006-02-25. Is this account eligible for a P^2 grace period refund ?
I too would really like to know the answer to this question.

Skill attributes make a difference, but are not uber. How you shape your character is one of the things that makes EvE what it is - whether you like it or hate it.
SP can be adjusted using Learning, or simply restarting. This is a basic message I pass to the 3-day newbs I happen to chat with in local as I consider whether I would want them in my corp or not. However, when you are three months restarting may not be a path you want to follow.
They make a difference in the mods you can use, ships you can fly, etc.. But, especially the lvl5 "achievements" are something for a player to feel proud of. Part of the "unhappiness" I would feel if CCP changed the requirements for current skills is the "cheat" for the time I "wasted" while training to rank 3/4/5 level 5 skills and also partly for the degradation of my "achievements".
Denebola is my second character. What started as an alt is now a main. And Denebola has been much more successful in learning the skills that count to fulfill a role. IMHO the "problem" with SP is the complexity of the skill relationships.
As a CEO training newb players, giving them advice I have learned a lot about how skill points should be acquired. And my newbs are playing more effectively in two months than I was at 6 (or more) largely because I try to force them to make a decision about what they want to achieve right now. And help them formulate their goals for three months down the road.
imho, much more than skills, the corp or alliance you join determines your short term effectiveness. The corp/alliance is capable of giving you "things" (isk/skill books/ships/guideance) to enhance their effectiveness.
But, on the issue of learning, from all my newbs who have played WoW, Guild, etc. they all mention the "offline" skill training as a great benefit; and they are actually glad that at three months they are an "amoeba" rather than maxed out. Everyday they see a new challange, a new direction, etc..
The SP gap? A year ago I worried a lot about that, because I had so few compared to others. I always felt their alts had more than my main. Atm I have a character with 20M+ SP, and Denebola with less than 5M SP. And I am probably doing much more with Denebola than with my old main. Both have their roles, but for now, for me, Denebola has the most satisifying role. And this is what I try to focus on with new players - what do you want to do today? And then discuss a training plan to help them enhance their effectiveness at doing that.
Skills and skillpoints are attributes of a feature - character growth management (to give it a label) - that used well can lead to some powerful roleplay in a short time. Used poorly, to headaches and disatification.
=======
The learning system in EvE has been one of the stable elements - and I fear the consequences of it being changed. But if their is one skill I try to instill in all my new corp members is the one I have found most helpful in enjoying this game - and that is to expect the unexpected, and never expect the game to be tomorrow what it is today. The world changes, EvE changes, you get podded. It is part of what makes EvE "EvE". In other words, if you can't deal with the unexpected, unreversible changes that are inherrent in the game - find a different game. (And still I hope they dont change skill development much!

Could someone offical let me know if this situation is allowable under the Power of 2 promo.?
I am a since retail release vet so my 2nd acct is 2+ yrs old
but i am INTERESTED in opening a 4th acct to experiment with the new bloodlines while creating a POS caretaker alt and later paying the $20 fee to transfer in a transport alt who could service a raw mining POS with fuel on inbound leg, load the mined raw material and on the return leg haul it to 2nd POS mining the other raw moon min where it would be reacted at the 2nd POS. The 3rd slot could be for the 2nd POS' caretaker alt.
Been considering doing this anyway for a while but the initial disc on subscription makes me lot more willing to take the plunge.

This power of 2 program is heresy! I demand satisfaction
This beginning.
This birth of life.
This dawn of greatness.
I can not fail, for I have the Emperor to lead me and destiny to follow.
