24 beers a day tends to bring on immediate temporary Alzheimer's.

Darn it, I can't remember if I drank my two beers last night. Better drink four tonight just to be sure.

The article keeps saying "silicone," waterproofing compound and once the ingredient of breast implants. I wonder if they mean that or just "silicon," the element?

Sounds like a great prescription. I'll get mine filled at the local 7/11 tonight on the way home.
Does it mention if Red Necks and Irishmen were used in the study?

The title of the paper cited in the article says "silico" = "silicon." A bad translation, probably.

Two is just a maintenance level. You start to get smarter and memory improves with three or more.

Two beers a day is hardly going to ruin anyone's liver. As a matter of fact Alcohol doesn't cause liver disease, lack of eating by many alcoholics causes it. Drinking two beers a day will have no affect what so ever on a persons liver.
