The world would be a worse place without beer. Very > few beers are really good, Wha--? There are a staggering number of beers that are very good indeed. Certainly the number is in the scores. Maybe you're talking about the number of big-distrubution "American" beers at the local 7-11. Or something. At least here in SoCal, I can find exceptional regional brews. Stuff by Lagunitas, Stone, Avery and many other great breweries. > ...and very much (mostly low quality) are > drunk with terrible consequences... Maybe you hate Flash in the > way a socially conscious person might hate beer? Oh, you're talking now about Green Flash IPA. I think it's really too heavy on the hops, but it's like a go od cigar. I don't think cigars or over-hopped beers are good--initially. Five to ten minutes later, though, I do a 180 on the subject. In the same way the only really discerning remarks I can make about a martini is in the first 10-15 minutes or so. After that all most every thing is GREAT! -- Thank you and have a nice day.

The worst example I have ever seen is http://www.billyconnolly.com. Set a stopwatch, go to that site, and see how long it takes you to find Billy's next tour dates. -- K. Lang may your lum reek.
