I kind of wonder if it wouldn't actually be "dead" proof, though.

OTOH, yeast is alive, right?

It is. Beer is also rich in lactobacilli and other microorganisms which feed on its sugars.

The living yeast makes the alcohol, and the alcohol then kills the yeast. What a thankless job!

Dave Price: most marijuana smokers would claim that THC is living proof that God wants us to be happy. :)

I would rather state that the fact that the brain has THC receptors to be the living proof that G-d wants us to be happy and eat Doritos.

Commenting on Dean's World is a privilege, not a right. Dean is your host, you are his guest, and you should behave in that fashion. Dean is not your babysitter, nor is he your punching bag. Please remember this. In general, you are free to disagree with anyone on any subject you wish, but abusive behavior will not be tolerated.

Of course we all lose our tempers now and then. Dean freely admits to being imperfect in this regard, which is why regulars to this establishment will generally be cut more slack than people who we don't know very well.

Still: behave like an adult, or go find somewhere else to play. Thanks.
