Is this strange? No. Think of all the tremendous rolls that have occurred in casinos throughout America --- how many of those are publicized inside or outside the casino? Some of your readers have been on such rolls and except for a little chatter right after them, nothing said, nothing written, these events vanish into the ether.
Of course, I wrote about it as I have (in words of Ralph Kramden) a "big mouth." But I did get permission to do so. The Captain gave me access he gave very few. Indeed, I believe without him I would still be largely unknown. (Do not take that to mean I invented him to become a big shot. I was lucky in this regards.)
