    Sorta OT: Do they wear summer clothes in Vegas in September?

    It will probably be quite warm in the day still. I would agree to dress like summer, but carry a sweater. I found the casinos not as cold as that had been in the past the last time that I went, and I attributed that to slight conservation due to the economy. Sue
