He also wants to make a game out of the game theory <br> | |||
problem of three duelists, one who is 100% accurate, <br> | |||
one who is 80%, and one who is 50%. Lots are drawn for <br> | |||
the order in which they shoot and they shoot one shot <br> | |||

chance of survival. | |||
Called Felicia about <u>EXECUTIVE DECISION</u>. I suggested showing <br> | |||
it to Championship. She said they are in financial ditficulty. <br> | |||
<u>PRO-QUARTERBACK</u> has been hurt badly by 3M'S <br> | |||
<u>PRO FOOTBALL</u>. | |||
Later Felicia called me back. There was a letter from <br> | |||
Bill Caruson. He thinks the basic idea of <u>EXECUTIVE DECISION</u> <br> | |||
is excellent, but they find the bookkeeping detracts from <br> | |||
the fun. Feel the same about <u>STOCKS & BONDS</u>. Hope that my <br> | |||
"genius" will come up with something. <br> | |||
Sent myself a registered letters with <u>SPELLBINDER</u> rules. | |||
Red, a carbon copy of Bill's letter to Alice. <br> | |||
Also rcd. a letter from David Laughridge <s>ask</s> saying they'd <br> | |||
like to hold onto <u>ANOTHER</u>, <u>FITTING & PROPER</u>, <u>TOTALLY --</u>, and <u>WHAT'S IT WORTH TO YOU?</u> a while longer before making <br> | |||
a decision. | |||
Called Alice to tell her of Laughridge's letter, she told me that <br> | |||
she had rcd. Bill Caruson's letter last Friday but hadn't <br> | |||
told me about it so that I could relax over the long weekend <br> | |||
She never thought I would get the game so soon. | |||
