This legislation will block New Yorkers from accessing Internet
poker sites

Poker needs your help! On Tuesday, March 11th the New York State
Senate Codes Committee approved legislation (S.66) which will force
Internet Service Providers like AOL, Google and MSN to block their
customers from accessing lawful Internet poker Web sites and other
gaming on the Internet. This Bill can be voted on by the full State
Senate as early as Monday, March 17th!

This is a direct assault by the New York State Senate to censure your
rights to access the Internet to play poker or similar games in the
comfort and security of your own home.

Please call Sen. James S. Alesi at (518) 455-2015 if you haven't
already.

Tell them:
* I am voter in your district and a poker player
* I strongly oppose S.66 because it restricts the free flow of
information and services over the Internet
* New York should not follow the example of repressive countries
that censor the activities of their citizens on the Internet.
* Please vote NO on S.66

With your help we can stop this outrageous bill. Please call your
Senator TODAY!

The thing that really drives me crazy is that they find THIS the best way to help our state right now. Like there are no issues more pressing in our state. These politicians drive me crazy with the issues they waste there short "work season" dealing with. Not surprising our state is in it... well current state, so to speak.

Then why play it if you feel people watching you. Why spoil it for people who like to play it. I think someone told me once. "The world does not revolve around you"
