My post earlier....

While I'm not sure about your six-pack and drunk for weeks idea....

But I know for a fact...alcohol effects American Indians differently.

I've seen the event ~ 2 six packs does it ~ you get to keep the alcohol in your system a lot longer than others. If you drank moderately ~ let's say a couple of six packs a week for six months, you'd probably be dead drunk most of the time.

There are Europeans, Africans, East Asians, South Asians, North Asians and American Indians with this problem.

One of the more famous studies focused on Northern and Skolt Sa'ami for a substantial period of time and demonstrated that there were extended families that simply couldn't metabolize alcohol. Some Sa'ami nations have a lower than normal incidence of alcoholism because they adhere to the dicta of a very conservative church that fights alcohol 24/7.

The Oglala Sioux have a widespread problem that can be solved if and only if someone gives them new livers with some new genes.

You do know the Osage, Comanche and others arise out of the same Assinoboine group as the Oglala.
