Hey I live near Atlantic City!  Businesses can rip people off every day
of the year and still thrive.  Of course everyone knows that the odds
are against you at a casino, but it still doesn't stop folks from going
there and "Trying their luck."  Just think of buying a GEX engine as the
same kind of "entertainment" that people get in losing thousands of
dollars at the tables.  The rod through the case, is probably just as
exciting.  :-)
