pawian 221 | 23,970 9 Apr 2012 #5Have any of you ever got talked into downing a nip of undiluted spirytus (90+% grain alocohol)?I once drank spirit which was diluted too little -we didn`t have enough water - the conditions were very peculiar - we were in the desert. The burning in my throat which lasted for a few hours taught me a good lesson and never have I tried to do it again.
