This is not exactly high brow journalism...


Nothing like bringing your test patients to the brink of an alcohol induced coma to test their vision. Shocked Shocked

.35 is a coma. These subject were brought to .32!


Re: .35 is a coma...just wondering where you got that from because I doubt it's so cut and dried as to be a general standard.

This site states that between .40 and .50 "a person MAY go into a coma" (capitals are mine)

http://www.faqs.org/nutrition/A-Ap/Alcohol-and-Health.html

After all if drinking one bottle of soju in 30 minutes can cause a coma that easily I think we'd see a lot more comas here. Not of course that .32 isn't high but it doesn't seem that close to the danger zone.
