Sorry, Brandu, Everclear is 95% alcohol, not 99.5 %. The reason that it it
is 95% alcohol, according to my Chemistry professor, is that, due to the
structure of the ethanol molecule, it must be partially water at any given
moment- it's a matter of the molecules binding and unbinding themselves at
"normal" temperatures, ie +/- 20 degrees C.

The World's Need

So many Gods, so many creeds,
So many paths that wind and wind,
When just the art of being kind
Is all this sad world needs.
