Wasilla, thanks for the kind words but I also have a lot to learn. My interest in downtown was largely driven by your own trip reports including the detailed contemporaneous notes you keep in that notebook. I certainly learned a lot from you about where to score good microbrew beers. I don't gamble to make money, but just to get a subsidized or free vacation doing something I like while taking a break from my sometimes demanding job. I just keep my eyes and ears open which is one of the reasons I have been gravitating my action away from Boyd casinos and to QQQQ and Binions.
BTW Wasilla, I sent you a PM on the other message board.
Regards, FAB
