I doubt that you would have jeopardized a hundred grand clear a year by talking about it in detail for the last fifteen years or so, let alone gone well out of your way to embarrass or otherwise subvert the high rollers of Las Vegas at the same time. Wouldn't want to tip off the MIT team, either.
I think that you get a bit carried away, at times. At this point in our lives, we must rely on the tried-and-true, not, the experimental, breakthroughs in concept.
I seem to recall that it's been said that athletes have to relearn even how to walk, but, this doesn't mean that people shouldn't watch football games. Personally, I can't think of a greater waste of time than learning about, and, watching a football game. But, I suppose, the game of life/death can't do without it.
