And unless you're really blasting them down, beer makes you space out your alcohol intake more. I knew a kid who did 16 tequila shots, one after the other, and had to be run out on a stretcher, but I can't imagine someone straight chugging 16 cans of beer, one after the other. Or, if I can imagine it, then they probably deserve whatever they get, sad to say.

Knowing the good ol' UK, this study will likely result in more restrictions on alcohol. I wouldn't be all that susprised if they ban it altogether before the end of the next century. Couple that with the fact that cameras are watching your every move a la Minority Report, and you've got one heck of a country. And I mean no disrespect, Orfy...America's on its way there too.
