- Correct in all respects, however, the hotel has given written assurance of
- this such that they are in default on their contract if they cannot comply.
- All the closed circuit permissions are conditional on the system passing
- muster. If the system fails testing, the videos will get bumped to the video

- Yes but I have a great deal of sympathy for people who can't take the
- opportunity to catch up on their TV episode collection. When I can, I try to

- holding conventions and if we are to earn the respect of the vendors, then we
- have to obey the laws, in spirit as well as letter.
