That's very interesting. I am the eternal slack-jawed tourist when I go there. I am guessing it's too often overlooked that the life that is lived there day by day is the real Las Vegas.

Especially back when I was in college, I'd get incredulous reactions when I said I was from Vegas ("People _live_ there??"). Well, yes, they do. It's a city, too! I'm also convinced that the way to deglamorize gambling is to grow up with it. My wife (also from Vegas) and sister are the same way, as are my son, niece, and nephew, who all grew up in Reno. When it's around all the time, it's just no big deal! I can't imagine having your big vacation just be to come to Vegas to gamble! But I shouldn't complain--gaming taxes are why we don't have a state income tax ;)
