I'm inclined to agree with you, and thanks for posting the link, because it illustrates one of my points very well. It helps to consider the source of anything we may read on the web. Potsdam is well-known as a "party school" (though it's no longer making the lists. I know, because I went there
![Wink](images/smilies/wink.gif)
). The article was written by a Sociology professor -- not a medical doctor. His audience is primarily made up of students, whose standards of what constitutes "moderate" with regard to alcohol consumption are quite different than the general population. All in all, knowing the town and the school, I'm inclined to regard his definition of "moderate" on the liberal side.

Still, I will try hard - no...I WILL cut down on my drinking. I've done this before, drinking only 3 or 4 beers on the weekend, so at least this is certainly possible for me...and fairly easy, too.

I think that's laudable.

I don't know how you guys make it through the weekends, or how you release stress from pain.

We do whatever we need to do, short of things we know will be harmful in the long run. I posted a link to
lots of articles of ways & techniques. They don't all work for everyone, which is why I posted the search. We all have to find what works for us.
Best wishes,
