Thank you, Mad2. Your research is very thorough. If the only source of revenue for BETT was from catalog business, I think that BETT would have a hard upward climb. Catalogs have been doing business for years without the worry of getting their money from customers. I think that the on-line gambling is where BETT will make its play. I don't think that on-line gambling will go away and the government will not be able to stop it. The only draw back to on-line gambling is how will the gambling operation make sure that they will receive the wager, if the gamblers loses his bet. That is where Betting Inc. would step in by transferring instant, non-cancelable cash to the gambling operation. The gamblers also needs to be comfortable that, if they win, the money will be transferred back to their bank account. There are many companies that don't make it. My money is on Betting Inc. making it. You don't have to tell me, I know it is a gamble. <ggg>. Scoobey
