OT : The Monte Carlo in Vegas is engulfed in flames..

The hotel Monte Carlo is engulfed in flames starting at the uppermost floors. It's not looking good at the moment. Given that the bldg is 34 stories I hope id doesn't come tumbling down like one of the twin towers. So far no word if anyone has been hurt yet. I'm going to Vegas on Tuesday I hope the bldg is still standing then.

Yikes...

they just showed some people in a window waving for help. It kinda reminds me of the world trade.

Monte Carlo
stayed there a few months ago (I think in the wing that I saw burning on TV).  One of the better value places on the strip.  Very nice hotel - not nearly as swanky as Bellagio or Venetian, but enough so as to feel like you are living above your means for a few days.  

Won a good deal of money there too... hope the place isn't too badly damaged.
