Computers instead of slots ................

SLOTS ARE A GOOD THING FOR OHIO .................

Gambling is a good thing for Ohio................

Gambling is the wagering of money or something of material value on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary intent of winning additional money and/or material goods.

In a typical slot machine, the top jackpot stop (the one with the highest-paying jackpot image) for each reel corresponds to only one virtual stop.

This means that the chance of hitting the jackpot image on one reel is 1 in 64.

If all of the reels are set up the same way, the chances of hitting the jackpot image on all three reels is 1 in 643, or 262,144.

For machines with a bigger jackpot, the virtual reel may have many more stops. This decreases the odds of winning that jackpot considerably.

Why not put some people to work in Ohio. Put together an agency, probably in Steubenville, form teams, both men and women, dress them in black, and they just go around the state, ROBBING PEOPLE. (In the interest of safety, they use only play guns, which look real. Actually they might just use miniature slot machines.)

All the revenue goes to schools, road resurfacing, purchasing ORANGE barels and building more libraries, which they can later close.

Better idea. Instead of slot machines at the tracks, put in computers, charge $10 an hour.

Figure out what 15,250 computers could bring in, in 14 months, my computer doesn't go that high.

More income for out officials to mishandle, and a lot of people will be put to work.
