Sure looks like there won't be anything coming from Mr. Norman. This game is verging on the archaic and it would take a new owner with money to burn to resurrect it. Don't see that happening.

Too bad. So many missed opportunities to capitalize on the increased popularity of the sport which may now be waning.

My first apartment way back in the 80s was above a laundromat. The guy who owned the building was always hard to reach. If you were "lucky" enough to run into him on a day other than rent day, he would always grin and walk quickly away, muttering "Don't worry! I'm gonna get this place fixed up!"

Of course he never did.

Paul reminds me of that guy.
