And I thought cars funded that town! Silly me.
No doubt Las Vegas will follow suit. That town has virtually no physical
barriers to expansion.

Are you luhring me with potential allusions to $$? :-) Sounds kinda tempting,
though that'd be a tough sell to my NQNLS I think, though she has said on
numerous occasions that it would be great if I got paid for playing with Lego.
Store fronts are a bit of $ to operate however, especially in malls (don't
know about casinos but I spose it could be the same) as you have to remain
open for as many hours as the mall, just about everyday.
