Strangest thing about the addictive qualities of alcohol they derive mostly from the fact that if you juice up frequently enough in sufficient quantities a fair quantity of that alcohol is converted into opiates (and probably cannaboloids), and that's what you get addicted to.

Alcohol by itself is just a solvent.

But you knew that didn't you.

That is utter nonsense. Where did you pick up that urban legend?

Ethyl Alcohol is a depressant in it's own right - it doesn't get "converted into opiates".
