Reader Poll feedback: As we promised on Saturday, we received so much email feedback regarding our last poll that we opted to reproduce a good number of the responses in place of today's QoD. While many of you made valid arguments both for and against LVA membership, a good portion of the emails we received were either bewildering, or unintentionally hilarious, or both (for which thanks -- you truly brightened a wet and windy Friday afternoon when we read through them all!) So, here are some of the responses to our last poll question, together with some feedback of our own...

With all the old casinos being torn down or renamed, what is the oldest casino with its original name, in its original building, on the Strip?

I read somewhere that the Mint Casino used to offer a "Behind the Scenes Tour" that included the count room and the surveillance catwalks. Can this be true, even in the olden days?

A few months back, you wrote about a lawsuit involving the Grand Canyon’s Skywalk attraction. Has there been a verdict?

Which bars and lounges, if any, still have dueling-piano shows?

Regarding Terrible Herbst casino and gas stations, who was Herbst and what did he do that was so terrible? Thanks!

What are the rules for casino ownership in the U.S. and is N.J. still the strictest? PART II

Feb. 18's Record of Hackensack had a news item that the New Jersey Casino Control Commission might relax regulations to enable the sale of the Atlantic Club Hotel. What are the rules for casino ownership in the U.S. and is N.J. still the strictest?

Sometime back I read that a movie was planned about the book, Storming Las Vegas. Any info on that?

Are there any full-service gas stations on or near the Strip so I don't have to pump my gas before returning my rental car?
