If you have internet access, you have the ability to toss some of your cash away. DigEplayer or not, sricket was correct, the internet already provides many many sites for one to plug in a Visa and play any type of casino game. Plus, more importantly to some, Sports book! There are no international water issues or tax issues or any other stumbling blocks or hurdles to cross. It`s done every day by lots of people.

These gambling site guys have tons of cash to throw at any bill that has tried to pass Congress -- all have disappeared and the gambling goes on. I imagine Paul or someone who has spent any amount of time dealing with the gambling industry can give more pointed examples.

The only issue, IMO, is whether the airline gets a piece and consumers will just say ``Heck No!`` Or maybe a bit stronger. Why give anything to the airline when the internet is already fully ``wired`` for gambling?

IMO, Paul is also very right about getting in bed with a devil -- we just might end up in Hades with that infamous red hot poker appendage.
