I'm talking to you, white boy.

Groups that have had more than 5 drinks in one day during the last year.

They didn't plot groups that haven't had fewer than 5 drinks in a day in the last year.

I think 65 and over is under reported.

Plenty of folks in Palm Beach like their Dewar's just fine. Those bridge parties can get crazy.

Half bottle.

 

[Chris Weber]

Heck, they're all under reported. This is breakfast, lunch, dinner, high tea, nightcap, pick me up, all of it, for a whole day? Counting wine and beer too?

Older people may be disinclined to confess to strangers on the telephone.
