Nick,
Thanks for the link, but you didn't respond to the idea I laid out there.
If nominated to the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission, would you serve?

K.L.: Thanks for the flattering suggestion an old man should still be following President Kennedy's suggestion he ask "what can I do for my country?"
The reason I didn't respond to your suggestion -- aside from the effort to feign the appearance of modesty -- was because, as I assume you are aware, it's what we call in law school "a hypothetical question."
There's no way that any politician who wants to be re-elected, and needs to raise campaign contributions to do it, would ever appoint me to such a commission. Since that's pretty much all politicians, I don't think it's a question I'll ever have to answer.
(The only possible exception would be a Governor Ed Fallon, and I would hope I might have something more significant to contribute to a Fallon Administration.)
But as a hypothetical question, yeah, I'd certainly give it serious consideration.
