There are companies there that insure a lot of things that can't be insured elsewhere in the world(i.e. you can buy insurance against a plant in a third world country getting nationalized and similar events). Another advantage is that gambling laws in Britain are much looser than in the US. It is plausible that a bookie joint might take up some of these bets even if an insurance company wouldn't. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
