Man, in this thread, the recovering alcoholics are actually telling newcomers to drink OJ to replenish thier bodies. Someone go stop them, for gosh sakes.

The alcoholic brain doesn't know the difference between a little and a lot of alcohol, hence the saying, "One is too many and a thousand never enough". It's a chemical thing, not a psychological process.
Non-alcoholic beer has, what, .5% alcohol in it (on average)? So by your logic, if an addict snorted only .5% cocaine, it wouldn't be a problem? Hey, why not let the kids do it? I mean, what's the harm? After all, it's "negligible"... kinda like shooting oneself in the head with a small-caliber handgun. You only die a little...

Additionally, according to a report published by Indiana
University, a standard glass of orange juice contains between
.2% and .5% alcohol. Six glasses of orange juice could
theoretically create the same culpability in a minor as six
bottles of non-alcoholic beer.

Well, wouldja look at that? I've been riding this rock around the sun for 37 years now, and only today is it made clear to me that there is actually alcohol in orange juice! Who'da thunk it?
