"A solar glare specialist who was denied a contact by a Las Vegas hotel to help it solve an intense sunlight issue — now dubbed a 'death ray' by employees there — says the casino ignored his advice and went with a cheaper fix," ABC News reports on its website .
ABC reports that Nichols E. Ashton, president of glass film manufacturer SSAF International, said the builders of the Vdara hotel ignored his company's advice back in November 2008.
