HEHE, I got news for you !
Although I've heard some people prefer using standard sheets of paper on their machines, this thermal paper is affordable, although I admit, it's kinduh messy ! Wealthy people pay many thousands more for machines that have ROM cartridges and hook ups for data type radio shack tape recorders such as that newer CCR-81 but just to play black jack ? Seems useless IMHO. 16K memory in basic just isn't that advantageous AFAIC.. But all the stuff they're starting to make today is plastic ! Cheap light plastic ! Not solid like my metal machine !!

Ollie, I am VERY aware the the New River gorge, and Royal gorge as well as the Perrine (Idaho) bridge exists.. In my worst nightmare I wouldn't go near those. I too am petrified of heights HOWEVER my parents were at Royal Gorge last year, and walked it stating it wasn't as bad as anticipated. Gunnison sounds interesting

Oh yes. I've been to AND across the RG...i was faint and jumpy the rest of the day.
My grandfather took his kids across it BEFORE it was the bridge it is now. My mother would never go back there...I don't blame her.

We went there on our senior sneak A guy panicked and was on his hands and knees It just so happened his eyes lined up with a wide crack in the boards and he was looking down petrified and couldnt move. We thought he was joking but we had to carry him off He was still white when we got to the prison tour...

This is sheer terror IMHO. A rope bridge 500meters ? I don't think this is at all accurate.. If that's the rope bridge in N Ireland it's around 80 feet. Dunno, the caption states over 500m
