Yeah Ilumina and Cloudy, what are you two on about? What was wrong with the way Aledrain used the word "ethanol"? IIRC C2H50H is ethanol(imagine the numbers are subscript), the 2nd most basic type of alcohol and it is found in alcoholic beverages. What you on about corn-based fuel for Illumina?

I can type just fine when I'm drunk. I just can't talk or stand up very well.

Upon minimal research, I discovered that ethanol is in fact alcohol. Can't think of a better fuel than that, anyway. You scored a hit. I'll mind it doesn't happen again, hm? (Read: I was wrong. Dammit. I simply must be more careful in the future.)

Some more ethanol information:
Alcohol contains ethanol and small amounts of methanol. Your body breaks down the ethanol first, and this is fairly painless as it's not as toxic. Once all the ethanol is gone, you start to break down the methanol. This is a toxic process and results in a hangover. If you have another drink while you are hungover, your body starts again on the new ethanol and the hangover goes away, but only until your body starts on the methanol again. This is why hair of the dog works, but only temporarily. The best remedy for a hangover is to eat eggs - eggs contain some sort of enzyme which deals with the more toxic elements of methanol breakdown and can relieve the worst effects of a hangover. Or something like that.
