LJIS Good point.  Reminds me of that great Bob Dylan quote - "money doesn't talk, it swears".However, part of the cover up, and most certainly, a lot of the justification for drinking, can be laid at the feet of Christianity.  The Bible writers claimed Jesus first miracle was turning water into wine, at a wedding, and that the happy couple would enjoy wine in heaven, a payback I guess,for obeying the 10 commandments.  In other words - "be good, and you too can enjoy the Jesus Open Bar in heaven!"
