I sure missed a once in a lifetime opportunity in 1958 while I lived in Las Vegas. I was offered to buy land way out on Flamingo Road, but I didn't do so. I also heard that some land out away from the city was going for $5 an acre. The question is: Roughly, what was the price of land around Las Vegas in those days, which incidentally was even before Howard Hughes started to buy land there?

Can you settle an argument for us (actually, we have a bet on it, too). I say the oldest building in Las Vegas is the Golden Gate Hotel. My wife says it's some sort of fort built by early settlers to protect against the Indians. Who's right?
