Darryl,

Maybe you can redeem yourself by gambling away the money from the sale of the meteorite at the noble, sacred casino. I wonder how all the shmucks that lose their familes and homes there will fit the dataset? The spirits will look favorably on them I suppose but not during the game of course. Are there spirits of the slot machine and blackjack table that one could entreat for good fortune?

The sprawling Grand Ronde complex is a sin against the earth as defined by tradition, isn't it? Who will pay for that crime? Hypocrites don't hold any spritual water in my opinion.

Bill
