Mark's response re: Green Felt Jungle is great. There's currently a signed copy on ebay. I came across it last night.

A few years ago, I wrote a 20 page report while at UNLV on Howard Hughes and the transformation from gambling to gaming. I was pretty proud of it and the professor put it on file as a reference in the Gaming Library at UNLV. I think it's still there. I've promised several people a copy of it, as soon as I find it I'll probably post it on my website.

If you like video instead - Mob on the Run is an EXCELLENT history of Las Vegas. It was made by investigative journalist Ned Day about 15 years ago. It heavily influenced the movie CASINO, as several scenes taken from the documentary were re-enacted for the movie. I have a copy. Do we have a video section in the club library? I should make a copy and donate it if we do.

It may take a while, though. I'm working 12 hour days at the Aladdin with no days off, as well getting out TyrusRex orders. I'M NOT ANDY - I NEED MY SLEEP!!!!
