meeting with Mr. Feinberg...

Monday, 11/08, Mr Feinberg will be here on the Coast for a private meeting with local, and hopefully, state officials about our casino claims.  This is our best chance so far, by far, to get our claims recognized as legitimate and to have them all evaluated properly.  We have a number of local powerhouse people working for us.  Beverly Martin, Executive Director of our Mississippi Casino Operators Association is working hard for us all.  Linda Hornsby, Executive Director of our Hotel & Lodging Association will be there as well.  Bobby Moak?  Not sure yet.  We are working hard to try to be there to give voice to the person on the front lines.

And, oh by the way, as of November 4, 49% of our (Mississippi) resolved claims have been denied.  Louisiana 29%, Alabama 19%, and Florida (for gosh sake no oil) 12% ! ! !

Congratulations to our brothers who appeared on WLOX News Wednesday evening outside the LeMoyne Blvd office of the GCCF.  Very humanizing.  Very courageous for featuring your families and how much this has really damaged us all.  This is exactly the message we are trying to send to Ken Feinberg.  Hey, we are people here, and we have been hurt by this!  Great work, guys!!!
