Mark,

First let me say that we're happy to hear that you're a good father and able to mix business and caring for your children at home. It does mean a lot.

Now that you know how we feel (I'm sure you've read everything on this board) about chips that were never intended to be used in a casino being called casino chips, would you accept our proposal not to list these as such in future auctions? To balance this proposal, we'll back-off. Do we have a deal?
