I was going to make a point by posting this article, but I've forgotten what it was.

Did their mental state decline because of alcohol consumption or did their alcohol consumption increase because of a mental decline? That is the first question. The second is; how valid is the mental pool representation of people in general using British Civil Servants as a test pool. Based on my experience with a similar group in the US, it would seem not. Here many of those offices resemble the Star Wars bar scene.

People for centuries have enjoyed pints per day, docs use to recommend two glass of wine at diner and before after cocktails.
These studies normally are as reliable as...oh wait what

How can you test someone’s memory when they’ve had over 2 1/2 pints of beer? lol

Archie Bunker once observed that you don't really *buy* beer,you just rent it.

A 10-year study of more than 7,000 male and female civil servants found men who regularly drank significant amounts of alcohol suffered notable mental decline.

Obviously researched by women.

Are they drinking because of the decline in memory, or is the decline due to the drinking? None of these “studies” can determine cause and effect.

Is it possible that beer drinkers have a gene that makes them want more beer and also makes them forget? Can’t tell from the “study.”

Hey honey, how about a ..... I forgot its name.
