Lately you’ve expertly answered questions about a number of Nevada casinos in a state of flux. As a former Las Vegas resident, now living in northern Nevada, I would love to know the story on the Ormsby House in Carson City. Neighbors tell me the place has been in a state of remodel/repair/"flux" for as long as they can remember.

What’s the status of the road to the Grand Canyon Skywalk? I know the project has been mired in a lot of controversy. Is it still open and, if so, will the 14-mile access road ever be paved? Until it is there's no way I'd risk driving on a dirt track way out in the middle of the desert.

On LVA’s recommendation, we went to dinner at Mastro’s in Crystals at CityCenter. Great meal, but the waiter asked my date if she wanted a white napkin, a black napkin, or both? What’s the reason for that?

I am fascinated with zip lines. What is the status of the "upper level" of Slotzilla and the two other proposed zips at The Rio and the one at Excalibur?

I remember reading about the solar farm near Bakersfield some time back. How about the similar farm that is between Vegas and Laughlin? Is that the same type setup? I know it’s huge and you see it from miles away.

Now that any final lingering trace of "Hilton" has been erased, with LVH having been sold and re-branded as the Westgate Las Vegas, can you give us the background on the building and its history? I seem to recall it being a fixture from when I first started visiting Vegas, back in the ’70s.

You mentioned the recent failure of Jimmy Buffet's casino in Mississippi. Is his partnership with Resorts Casino in Atlantic City at risk?

Anybody know why there isn't gaming in Town Square? Is there specific reasoning behind it? Zoning?? Or???

Since I know you aren’t shying away from certain subjects (e.g. the "naughtiest thing you’ve done in Vegas" poll), maybe you’ll decide to tackle this one (evil grin). In an issue last year of your LVA newsletter, I noticed that the AVN would be in Vegas 1/15-1/18. You showed prices $55-$275. Since I thought this was a porn movie-star "convention," the question comes to mind: What does this pricing cover??? Do I get "more" for my $275 than I would for my $55 fee?? Inquiring minds wanna know :) Should be a fun answer, should you guys decide to tackle this one :) Merry Christmas!!

Which casino is known for testing the newest slot machines in their casino first? Is there such a "testing casino"?
