I'd just like to nitpick something here. Prostitution _IS_ illegal
within Las Vegas' city limits, by local ordinance. It's only when you
get outside Vegas does it become legal. The state of Nevada leaves the
issue up to local municipalities, and while most allow it, Las Vegas
doesn't.
Anyway, the Mustang Ranch might have been near Vegas, but it wasn't
inside the city proper. :)
