<<<<This seems to be very good news. It would mean that the jackpot is

Who says it is going to hit more frequently? Do you think the new
combined meter for 8 properties will move 8X faster then each individual
property meter has in the past? My guess is that this new combined meter
will advance at approximately the same rate as one of the property meters
did in the past. I predict it will hit no more frequently then once or
twice per month on average. If the meter moves too fast and is hit too
frequently, Stations would not be able to get good advertising value
because the meter would have reset before they could get out the word
they had a "Jackpot Alert".
