Just realized that I initially read your original too quickly and that you identified this fact earlier!
Dooh (yet again)!
Anyway, thanks for the new information--and the warning in the first place. Personally, because of horror stories like this, I'll never set foot on their soverign land.
Sounds like it's basically no different than making a decision to count cards in a dangerous foreign country (where you have no rights as an American--or as a citizen of that country for that matter).
