They used to claim that alcohol kills braincells, now research shows, the opposite is true.

Now I finally understand.
This explains it all.
Why the French are always so condescending. They've known all along that they're smarter than everyone else. Thats why they value their whine so much.
OOPS! Stupid me. I mispelled whine.
OOPS! Did it again. I must have a problem with the French and their treasured beverage.

Drinking alcohol boosts the growth of new nerve cells in the brain, research suggests.
But while this might sound good in theory, the Swedish team believe these new cells could contribute to the development of alcohol dependence.

D'oh!

Thanks for the ping, and of course, for the kind remarks. :') Alcohol does kill brain cells, but it is also a vasodilator, which increases the size of capillaries. That could mean that new cells would develop.
