In your answer to the question on 2/18/08 about the procedures for dealers in the event of a fire or blackout, your source claims that dealers are instructed to sweep up all the bets on the layouts, then surveillance will do a tape review "to verify what belongs to whom." That seems highly unworkable to me. I mean, how long would it take surveillance to review the bets of hundreds of table-game players? And how would they know who everyone was? Would everyone have to come back to the tables and sit exactly where they were in order to be identified? Are the dealers, floor people, or security supposed to take names and numbers during the evacuation? Wouldn't it be a nightmare? Isn't it easier just to have everyone take back their bets and call it a dead hand? Or is the casino so greedy that they grab the money ("for your own protection, of course!") and hope that people won't bother with their last bets?

Is something new happening in Reno? I heard about something called The Legends at the Sparks Marina. What is it exactly? And what’s the Sparks Marina?

South of the Tropicana on the Strip was a funky motel called the Glass Pool Inn or something like that, and it had a little swimming pool with windows in the side. We loved driving by just to look at it, even when the motel was closed. Then it was gone! Do you have a history and I'd love to see a photo. Thank you. Love QOD!

I recently heard that there are plans to build a 30-story high rise "farm" in Las Vegas and that food produced there is to be used in local casinos. OK, I’m really curious. Who’s brainchild is this? Are they planning to use hydroponics or some other means to produce products? What do they plan on growing? How many people will this employ? Are casinos involved and backing this? So many questions ... so I’ve turned to the LVA gods!

On our first trip to Las Vegas in 1990 we visited a casino called Rodney's Place. Two years later when we returned, it was gone and we don't remember exactly where it was. Do you have any recollection of this place and its history? Any information would be appreciated!

What is the procedure at the casinos when there is a power outage or emergency (think Monte Carlo fire) concerning the gaming area? How are games stopped and money secured?
