    I'm am very surprised to hear that Harrah's was the one to first develop and implement the rewards cards. Very interesting and informative post. I also rememer Harrah's being very active in promoting GA (gamblers anonymous) Perhaps another genius ploy.

    Yeah Gary Loveman was a professor at Harvard Business School before he joined up with Harrah's in the 90's. When he became CEO in the late 90's he started hiring tons of grads from top schools. They completely got their nerd on.

    Plus, Harrah's hired "outsider" executives from places like Proctor & Gamble and Visa.

    There seems to be a bit of lag when accessing your site. Maybe its my ISP?

    Today your blog was featured in the What Men Think blog. Congratulations!

    I am a big fan of What Men Think, so much so that I decided to ask him to write my first ever guest blog and I hope you enjoy what he has to share with us. He is doing a great job for the heterosexual female population, as you can see. He loves helping and is willing to answer any nagging dating questions. Happy reading!
