Below is a portion of an 8-k filed by Bingo & Gaming International on 1-12-98. It appears they are changing outside auditors (including a reaudit of 1996). Could this be at the request if AB&G as part of the DD for the three Mississippi Bingo halls? Otherwise it is quite a coincidence. BDO Seidman, LLP, Certified Public Accountants, of Austin, Texas, audited the financial statements of the Company for the calendar years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 (which accompanied its Form 10-KSB Annual Report for the calendar year ended December 31, 1996, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 17, 1997), December 31, 1995 and 1994 (which accompanied the Company's Form 10-KSB Annual Report for the calendar year ended December 31, 1995, filed on or about April 12, 1996), and December 31, 1994 and 1993 (which accompanied its Form 10-KSB for the calendar year ended December 31, 1994, filed on or about April 14, 1995). Effective January 5, 1998, the Board of Directors engaged Brown, Graham & Company, PC, Certified Public Accountants, of Austin, Texas, to audit the financial statements of the Company for the calendar years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996. These financial statements will accompany the Company's Form 10-KSB Annual Report for the calendar year ended December 31, 1997, which will be timely filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Separately, regarding the other issue it is quite possible that the "new guys" just aren't used to having others make decisions about their businesses. Keep in mind that they are used to being their own bosses and it may take awhile for them to feel comfortable otherwise. In the meantime, conflicts may arise. Of course, JMO Gary
