  The new vendor notice for TV Stations mentions a requirement for building sets and providing draw hosts. That should mean that NC will use balls when they start up their in-state games in the fall. But I did think one unlikely, and scary, possibility. What if they have all that, but the draw results are sent from a Rig-O-Matic onto a monitor which the draw hosts then reads off. It's probably not the case, but let's not keep our guard down.

  With all the wacky things that have happened with other state lotteries so far I wouldn't be surprised of anything they do!  That's true for me.  I can't believe the stuff I read about other state lotteries.

  Just because NC has had a time getting a lottery started when other states have had one in place for many years doesn't mean that we need to continue bashing NC because what I've read right here on LP about the crap that goes on in other state lotteries it looks like NC have a helluv lot of catching to do when you look at what other states have done.

  I think NC has done well in spite of it all.  We deserve to be congratulated.  It was a battle won and it continues.  Yes a lot of stupid things went on and it was all a part of the resistance and fight.  All fights are stupid.

  When we have people to steal tickets, steal lottery funds, directors get fired over and over just to name a few of the crappy things that goes on with other state lotteries, then talk junk about us. 

  But until then why don't ya'll just congratulate us for even getting a lottery in place and lay off the bad mouthing just because you don't have anything better to say and because others are doing it and let us scratch our tickets in peace.   And wish us luck!
