Just had a brandy at the Parlour at El Cortez waiting for a Linux Meetup to start. Watched the piano guy doing some lounge music. Real neat place.

The place used to be a dive, but the rooms were above par. Jackie really has spiffed up the place (casino floor) I saw the last time I was there.

So does he know about Bitcoin himself, or was he just wearing the shirt as a favor?

asked/answered somewhere in this thread. He's just doing it as a favor, but at least one of the other 7 guys with him "knows it better". I can't recall what that means. But even if it's very little, the net sum of network effect outweighs the few around him that figured out he's just a shill for us.

He knows a little about Bitcoin. I told him that if anyone asks about it, he can just tell them that "you can use Bitcoin to play poker on the internet for real money."

The ONLY possible way to achieve change is to change the very system of how government functions. Until we are prepared to do that, suck it up for your future belongs to the madness and corruption of politicians." Martin Armstrong

Would there be an objection if the shirt said "I use dollars"?

Tell him he can wear his luck shirt under the bitcoin shirt. I had a vietnamese monk bless my tshirts from negative mojo so his lucky shirt doesn't have to spend any defense points.
