Did you do the Fremont Stret Experience while in Vegas, Susie? That's why they closed it down. Because people walk all through there... if they allowed automobile traffic i'm sure there would be lots of deaths.
Okay okay... question.... hmmm.....
Outside of the USA, what is the largest software producing country in the world?

Just a little bit more about Fremont Street. The hotel we stayed at for the IHD Meeting was 2 blocks away - so we went there several times:
From the modest beginnings of Las Vegas, Fremont Street initially was in the forefront of the gambling industry. It became the city's first paved street in 1925, the first street to have a traffic light and it is the site of the first Downtown highrise -- the Fremont Hotel, built in 1956.
The Apache Hotel on Fremont Street in 1932 was the first Las Vegas resort to have an elevator. The Horseshoe was the first casino to install carpet. And the first gaming license was issued to a Downtown Fremont Street gambling hall.
Downtown Las Vegas already had 36 years of history by the time the El Rancho Vegas became the first hotel-casino on the Las Vegas Strip in 1941.
