Quotation of the Day for April 11, 2013
"From the moment you walk in [to a casino], you are immersed in this other reality. It's neither day nor night; it's a twilight zone. You turn your money into chips because if you actually counted out $20 bills instead of putting a $500 chip in play, you would realize what you were doing."
- Gary Stephen Ross, author of the 1987 book Stung, on how casinos are engineered to take money from patrons.
