In Response To: Response to Poseidon (Leonardo Jerkovic)

Just a few posters seem to recognize as you do that lack of money making ability is hampering backgammon's popularity. However, you and others speak about how live tournaments can be improved to do whatever the posters believe is necessary in backgammon. I noticed that no posters seem to believe that online backgammon can be the driving force to improve its popularity.
