Any of you win the Lexus last night? Closest I came was a report that
it was someone with the same host as me (Kim Cloutier).
No offer for the Bose radio, perhaps it's for the new tier over Sachem,
called Club Sachem. We'll probably see escalating requirements for
privileges as Mohegan attracts more and more players. I asked Kim last
fall about Sachem requirements, said the theo was 2000. My
understanding it had been 1200. Theo is daily theoretical loss.
If I may digress...
Bose is an interesting guy. He was the lecturer for the first
electrical engineering course for students at MIT, back in 1965 and
before he started his business. Acoustic Research speakers (AR3) were
hot then, and Prof. Bose would point out how all these high end speaker
companies would do all this testing in soundproof chambers to get a
flat (accurate) response. But when you put the speakers in a real
room, the room acoustics would make the sound go wacky. He pointed out
what was important is to have good sound at where you are sitting in
the room, and you therefore had to compensate for the room acoustics.
That led into the engineering issues of measuring the impulse response
of the room, determining the inverse transfer function, etc. Great
lecturer, great products.
