Ed,

I'm not sure I would go as far as to welcome them or not, but the simple fact is that they are here and they are here to stay.

There is no way that we as a club will be able to have any affect on them at all. The only thing we can do is try out best to document them and make the information available to our members and others.

I used to maintain the Fantasy and Fakes section of the club web site. David Spragg has been doing it for the last year or more now. My guess is that due to the popularity of poker now and the huge market for this type of chip, David will need some help soon. He hasn't asked for it yet, but if anyone is willing to volunteer, send him an email. At least he can start making a list of volunteers for future use.
