When the ARES Institute announced their raffle, I felt I should quickly advise Matthew Travis he was in direct violation of law. He replied back and said he was going to remove the raffle.

Seems to me he desires to learn the hard way. It would not be suprised to see not only an Attorney General (in another state) indict him for violation of internet gambling but for Homeland Security to also enforce The Patriot Act.

If the space tourism raffle was the solution I would have done it years ago!
