Not long ago, everyone was talking about Plasma vs. LCD - which one would win? It became clear to most that Plasma, with its short lifespan of just 3-4 years, was simply not the best choice.

The top floors were nearly complete, with just a few random fixes needed here and there.Details Purgatory2208 Main St.214-651-8850The nightclub has multiple levels: Hell, Purgatory, Heaven and Upper Heaven.
And just like in theology, the higher up you try to go, the more restricted the access.The bottom level, Hell, is a tiered basement dance club with a balcony overlooking...
