Why doesn't Donald Trump have any casinos in Las Vegas? Is there bad blood between Trump and Steve Wynn?

I have searched your archives and not found any information about Del Webb's Mint Hotel & Casino that was on Fremont Street in the downtown area. My husband took me there when I first turned 21. I recently returned downtown and the hotel is no longer there. What happened?

I've never been to Las Vegas and I'm trying to decide if I should spend some time and money at the top of the Stratosphere Tower. What all is there to do up there?

My wife and I loved the answer on 5/29, giving your readers an inside look at Question of the Day -- especially the crazy questions you get. Now, how about telling us who tackles all these questions and writes the answers. You identify the guest contributors, but who's responsible for the unsigned ones?

I read the story about the helicopter trip to the Grand Canyon in the June Advisor and wondered if you know anything about the glass observation platform that's supposedly being built over the canyon. Any inside scoop on this?

I was playing at Terrible's last week and had a matchplay coupon out when I was dealt a blackjack. The pit boss instructed the dealer to pay me 3 for 2 on the chips I had bet, but only even money on the coupon. Was this the correct pay out?

We're headed to Las Vegas the 4th of July weekend - we thought it was really hopping there then, but cannot seem to find any details of events on the Internet. In fact, there seem to be less events than normal that weekend. What goes on the weekend of the 4th and will there be fireworks somewhere?

I was recently told that all buildings, casinos, and restaurants between Harrah's and Paris on the center Strip are going down to make room for three megacasinos. Is there any truth to this rumor?
