(http://www.gameland.gr/lawenglish.htm being the link referred to in the original post, for those, like me, who had forgotten what the hell we were on about here.) > Is is not "completely absurd", the greeks dont want online casinos. The Greeks don't want online casinos. So they've banned Space Invaders. If that's not absurd, I have a bridge to sell you across the Thames in London. Very good price. (Unless I've misunderstood. Have I misunderstood? I hope I've misunderstood. I want to have misunderstood. But I don't think I've misunderstood.) > The rest is polemic. Ah, come on. Banning all arcade games because you want to ban gambling games? Why, that's like banning all file sharing because you want to ban file sharing of copyrighted materi... Oh. Shit.
