In re Classmates.com class action settlement objection

We filed our objection late Thursday, and submitted ten other pro se objections that people took the trouble to send us for forwarding.  Is a settlement that pays class members $117 thousand worth $117 thousand or, as the plaintiffs claim, $9.5 million?  We invoke Wile E. Coyote in exploring what seems to be an obvious answer.  The attorneys are asking for $1.05 million for a settlement that Gregg Easterbrook describes as “shafting the plaintiffs.”
