    People who don't drink deserve to die sooner. They are boring anyway...:stuck_out_tongue:

    I hate that they don't reference the study and hate that I already know it's a correlation =/= causation conclusion to the study. That being said, I hope it is true. I might drink a little too much to be in that apparently small "sweet spot" mentioned

    Five days a week I am drinking and getting healthier, hopefully enough to undo the other two days :slight_smile:

    I'm sure many abstainers have their own way to relax and relieve stress but honestly, I do think the feel-good aspect of alcohol probably plays a part in these findings. It's no small secret that people with less-stress generally live longer and for many people there's nothing more relaxing than coming home from a tough day of work and cracking open a beer.

    This is good news. I thought I was in trouble for sure. Turns out I'm doing alright.

    Man, I hate when they call it Virginia Tech University, it is either Virginia Tech or Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. But I will drink to these findings by some of my fellow colleges as well.
