A lot of people are saying 21 drinks a week is a lot. While it's 21 more than I have a week these days, I've gone stretches in my younger years with several beers a night. Easily drinking 21 a week.

21+ drinks per week is 2 nights out for some people.

Because it is a lot.

So...you used to drink a lot. What's your point?

> 21+ drinks per week is 2 nights out for some people.

Yes, some people are very heavy drinkers. Again, what's your point?


> What's your point?

That in my experience, for youngsters, 21 drinks a week isn’t a lot.

> Again, what’s your point?

Please see above.

I’d wager a significant (20% or so) portion of youth (< 25) drink 21+ per week semi regularly.

That’s relevant to the comment I was replying to, and the studies it references.

Now that I’ve clarified things, what is your point?
