GEM and DIO - All DIO really did was announce a few maybes like maybe by the end of the year they would have an internet bingo site etc. My bingo addicted friends have no plans of buying a computer to play bingo. I think they like the outing.

GEM - Had a profitable business allowing general public to pick their site over. Decided to shut out the public and mine and sell on their own. Result- lost money, pissed off local government which liked the tourism money. Now they have reversed these bad decisions, open to the public again. Paid their their debt down from 14 mil. to 250,000 US.

Now they are going sell stones and jewels on the net. CEO was until last year a VP at Yorkton Securities. Would like to buy an online brokerage. Can the GEM story sell as well as DIO ? Who knows but I like it better.
