It's timely, I suppose, coming after a study is released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that reports that one in eight women in the US consume six or more drinks in a single sitting, three times per month. Men are no better, of course, but it's particularly worrisome for young women who are more likely to be drawn to beer-like drinks made with higher alcohol content. It seems there are links between heavy drinking and breast cancer.
It's nice, however, to see that our students (can we assume it was a student?) are leaving the Keystone Light behind. It's sad to see a student (surely of age) leaving the liquor store with 48 cans of inexpensive beer when a smaller number of quality labels could be had at the same price. There's an inductive proof in all of this, somewhere.
