Right. And this thread isn't one big pat on the back for how much $$$ you allegedly save, weight you supposedly lose, and how much healthier and awesome non-drinkers think they are?
With respect to any sort of judgemental attitude towards non-drinkers, the only group I've ever been critical of is the straight-edge hc folks' for all their dogmatic rhetoric. Other than that, please continue doing what works best for you.
