A Snowball in Hell

The provincial government of British Columbia's lottery advisory committee has been inundated by 49 applications -- twice as many as expected -- for new casino licenses. Lottery advisory committee chairman Peter Clark says "there is not a snowball's chance in hell that we will approve 49 applications."
