It's too bad they don't watch Nova, it's a great show and maybe they could learn some critical thinking skills from it.

I live in the drunkest state (WI) and this sounds like good news to me. Many of my friends have at least 2 DUIs and the culture here is to drink at every type of instance where people gather.
