To me there is only one Gambit Program and it is your Tiger ! It is the most interesting program to come along in a long while. Roarrrrrrrrrr umphhh umphhh. New Subject: I think many of us _buyers_ of programs are getting tired of the lawsuit stuff and I am beggining to loose respect for all parties concerned in the suit lidigation. I cannot understand why lawyers would permit a client to carry on in this manner on this or any forum. What can be gained from it ? The downside is clear ! Respectfully, Thanks Wayne
