are you saying that you can drink a 12-pack in short order and still be good to drive a vehicle, or control something in 3 dimensions that's moving 320kts?
it's people like you that make responsible drinkers shake their heads in shame.
That is one of the dumbest things I have ever read. Try doing some real research before posting second hand bullsh*t.
The CONSERVATIVE view is that 1 drink (1 beer, 1 glass of wine, 1 shot of something) equals .02 in your blood stream. Your body will process (pis*) .02 per hour. So, in one hour that is 4 drinks to get .08. If you pis* at the end of the hour, in theory you have .06. Play with the figures.
If you drank anything for 14 hours straight you would be unconscious and puking your brains out all over the nurse in the ER. Your BAC would be off the charts, .2+
