Binge drinking is clinically and commonly viewed as a period of extended intoxication lasting at least several days during which time the binger drops out of usual life activities. Few university students engage in such bingeing behavior.
I can confirm that this; in fact, a lie.

Haha the only real reason I liked this was because of the whole " beer belly" myth.

This site is great. I had found it before but hadn't seen it in a while. I was curious if this was compiled by a smart person or a lone drunk(same thing really). Here's the dude: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_J._Hanson

Thing is, I believed the bad hype about alcohol until I was 20. I mean, when I went to parties everyone acted amazingly retarded(strangely, my friends and this board don't do that[usually]) , and I just thought it was pure poison for the body/brain. After reading that moderate drinking was better for your brain and heart than abstaining in a few different places, I got drunk with some friends on my 20th birthday.

The rest is history. Or current events I guess. I can't imagine my life without drinking. Bleak. I salute this guys work and anyone else who sticks up for the truth about alcohol. It helps more than it hurts and it saves more than it kills.
