      <description><![CDATA[Your posts re: GTECH always provide  a dependable and unvarnished insider's perspective !<br /><br />Hopefully, there is little potential for this to gain traction and create a chain reaction among other jurisdictions in the USA.<br /><br />Here's one downside to consoldation accross global markets/cultures, to consider when the majors decided to merge]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[While they're at it they might want to see if Torrico, Perata and Florez<br /><br />had any contributions from any of the above.

Oh, thats right boys make sure you let the people know that you're doing your jobs so the public does'nt get taken in..Had any trips to Mexico lately, or maybe to the  Big Island  fellas]]></description>
