      Its one of the smaller atrocities in Vegas, particularly when compared to the Bellagio Fountain or the food waste generated by all those casino dining halls.

        The fountains aren’t quite as wasteful as they seem. They use a lot of water compared to a house, but way less than some car washes.

          Plus it is recycled. They would only replace what is lost due to evaporation or after a drain and cleaning.

      Yeah we should have never invented televisions or records either! And don’t even get me started on cell phones. Just waste waste waste.

      Why, if it were up to me we would all still be hunting and gathering!

        Apples to oranges dude, this is for pure spectacle that wears off after five minutes. Plus any data gained from it was at the lab they prototyped it I believe in Burbank. This aint really a sign of progress, and itll be funny to see what happens to it when it inevitably breaks.
