Or should I just work with "If I drink > tonight, I don't ride until tomorrow"? 1 hr/drink for the first 4 drinks. 1.5 hours/drink for the next 6 drinks. 2 hours/drink for the rest. These are fairly cautious guidelines, and will work even if you happen to have a low tolerance or body mass. I think the cops and "Don't You Dare Drink & Drive" (tm) commercials will usually say 1hr/drink in general, but after about 5 drinks and 5 hrs, you could very well be over the legal limit. Watch yourself. -Mike ________________________________________________ / Mike Muise / mjmuise@1302.watstar.uwaterloo.ca \ no quotes, no jokes, \ Electrical Engineering, University of Waterloo / no disclaimer, no fear.
