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?

I will be in Las Vegas the week of March 18th with a group of guys, many of whom will be playing a lot of poker. Can you recommend any "must see" or "must play at" poker rooms or facilities for the avid poker player? We will be staying at the Four Queens, how many poker rooms are there downtown?

A couple days ago, you ran a Question of the Day about the Railroad Pass and when it was licensed. Ultimately, you were unsure whether it held the fourth license in Nevada or not. Why the confusion?

I remember in the '90s that there was a casino in Reno (on Virginia St.) that had an upstairs room of vintage slot machines that you could play. Do you happen to know the casino's name and the whereabouts of those vintage machines now?

A feature on the Railroad Pass casino last year pointed out it holds Nevada State Gaming license No. 4. Which casinos held the first, second and third licenses?
