I recently wrote you asking, "Where did the King Tut Museum go?" I found it at the Las Vegas Natural History Museum downtown! So, now I must ask, what else did they remove from Luxor in 2008 to de-theme it, besides the "excavation site" at the buffet? What remains there that's Egyptian-themed (besides the Sphinx)?

We visited Las Vegas the last week of March and we knew about some of the halt of construction on the Strip. Could you update us on the status of the progress of the casinos that are partially built as to their names and locations on the Strip? Are some going to be finished and opened, especially the one with the large blue windows?

What performer or act had the distinction of the "final" performance at the Sahara?

If the spa at the Palms has closed, what are their fitness center availabilities? That was one of the benefits of their resort fee, and was a very nice gym to use while staying there. Access was through the spa, so I am curious now!

With the scheduled demolition of the Orbit Inn in Las Vegas, I was wondering what happened with the explosion in 1967? Was the Mob behind it?

Do casino chips ever get counterfeited? People try to counterfeit money so why not chips? Is this a problem and, if so, what do the casinos do to try and stop it? What sort of anti-counterfeiting technology is there in a chip?

Where does the name Vdara come from and what does it mean? Apparently it was made up. If so, who made it up and why?

We are interested in eating in Bartolotta Ristorante di Mare for our anniversary and my wife loves seafood but I’m a vegetarian. I checked the Wynn website but they don’t list the vegetarian menu. Is there a website that provides their veggie menu or can you tell us what is on it?

Regarding the 2-10-2012 QoD concering the Hilton sign: I recall reading many stories through the years where it is stated that virtually all Las Vegas casino signs are made by YESCO (Young Electric Sign COmpany), and their manufacturing contracts are written in such a way that YESCO is the permanent owner of the sign. I recall that the YESCO "salvage" yard is 10 times as large as what the Neon Museum has, and is several miles outside of town. Is there any truth to this?

Just watched the new "CSI" where the power went out all over town. What really happens, especially in the casinos, if the city's power goes out?
