I read a story the other day about a twelve-year-old
girl who had been to a party and they had poured her
a full glass of vodka. Then everyone made a ring
around her chanting "drink drink drink". The next
thing she knew was when her parents picked her up at
the hospital. Two years later the story appeared in
the news. Obviously a very unpleasant experience but
life goes on etc. etc. Last thing the journalist asked
was if she had been drinking anything since that day?
She replied that now her relationship to alcohol is
a bit more mature...

Technically death by alcohol can result with a BAC as low as 0.30,
assuming ethyl alcohol and the danger increases with increase in BAC.
This is also effected by body weight and composition, health level,
etc.


"As low as"??? 0.3 is so falling down drunk that even an alcoholic has a hard time getting that high.


"As low as" compared with much higher levels.
www.brad21.org, for
example, lists the effects of at least two higher levels - .35 and
".40 - higher".

The article I quoted from described .30 as the lower level where
alcohol poisoning could directly result in death.


I'm sure that a person CAN get that drunk but he has to drink very heavy and rapid enough to get it down before it gets into his blood stream.

I had a friend who was a Medic in the Navy (he belatedly discovered
that the Navy provided medical serves for the U.S. Marines) who
discovered that by injecting commercially pure Ethel Alcohol into
oranges one could get extremely blotto while on duty by simply eating
fruit. Subsequent to receiving administrative punishment (Captain's
Mast) for being drunk he did a bit more research and discovered that
imbibing pure alcohol was a good means of killing yourself and gave up
drinking.

triple chain line question Reid Priedhorsky Techniques 6 May 22nd 07 07:19 AM
The chain slips seldom when speeding up; can this break the chain? or do I have to line up the back sprockets? Iván C. Filpo Techniques 4 July 20th 06 04:44 PM
