Original message: Dani Newsom needs to tour the parking lots at and near the casinos prior to the cleaning staff getting there! The quantity of discarded alcohol bottles is astounding! This problem occured after the move to 24-hour gambling. The drinkers who also gamble figured out quickly that when they are cut off from the free, albeit monitored, booze, all they have to do is go to their car and gulp some of their own, then go back in and resume gambling. Rather than risk an "open-container" bust, they empty the last swigs (or gulps!) down their throat, discard the bottle right there, and drive down the canyon even drunker than they would be if they had been under the pretty watchful eyes of the casino bar-staff. And since the punishment for the casino and the staff is pretty severe if they give the gambler too much booze, we, the public, are safer with their monitoring than if the drunk is even drunker due to last minute, in-car, consumption! The problem is the drunk, not the possible move to 24-hour bars.
