Sadly this increase isn't enough to lower your electricity bills, 1000MW is a drop in the bucket :(Las Vegas with it's expected pop. growth, will need to triple it's current generating capacity in the next 10 years. And then, rather than you getting cheaper electricity - the company will sell the excess to other US regions.Utility companies will tell you there's no need for excess electrical generating capacity - they're wrong.
@Ag3ntOrang3Whew. Thank you! For a minute there I thought that because of "what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" meant they would not share the electricity with the rest of the country. Glad you cleared that up.It is true, though. I killed a guy in the alley next to New York New York and no one found out. Oooops...

The pollution here is horrible. Almost everyone has asthma just from walking around.

How do you know that "the gods" are opposed to gambling and prostitution (and roman candles)? Maybe they enjoy that sort of thing...

Oh man, a place where literally - the very lights that illuminate the orgies are powered by the fires of hell itself...
