    Default Justified Alcohol 0>)

    as explained by Cliff Clavin, of
    Cheers. One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff Clavin was explaining the Buffalo
    Theory to his buddy Norm.

    Here's how it went:

    "Well ya see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only
    move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the
    slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first This natural
    selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and
    health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the
    weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as
    fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know,
    kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain
    cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker
    brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's
    why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

    That's like the one that goes:
    25 per.cent of all road crashes involve alcohol. Therefore 75 percent do not involve alcohol. Ergo- It's safer to drink and drive!

    I'd heard this before (and seen the episode). I forgot about the last line though .....
