	Ummm, not to disagree but I disagree (grin)
	The Brewer's Guild here have a lot of fun when they watch me beer
taste.
	I have been known get tidly on three tastes of certain beers,
while I can down several large glasses of ouzo and survive.   I have a
friend who has the same problem with some other types of alcohol.
Sometimes its not the amount but the tyype.  Generally I don't stay tidly
long but enough (Belgian ale is not my friend (grin))

Clare
