Great Responses at lunch today,

The principle behind esuperlotto.com says "go for it" or as we say in the year of the horse "go
for a ride".

So, as soon as there is a proper org to donate too each of our purchased tickets will donate
one cent to the ALM.  Now you can play eSuperlotto and donate to the At-Large.

I also have discussed the matter with another Internet Lottery player and they simply say
"great when you are ready come to us and we will sign up".

I am promising these people that it will be user oriented and open and transparent and
bottoms-up.  If it is not then all bets are off. ;-}

The Sun is shining, it is about 80 degrees F., waves have good shape there is a slight westerly
breeze and So. Cal is blooming.
