I don't know... I didn't pursue the issue because I was so utterly confounded by her claim that I was incorrect.Quote:

It's good to know a couple of extra languages. I'm Ukrainian by birth and American by nationality(for those of you who don't know already).
I am Indian by birth, and German by nationality and live in Canada.Quote:

Well the birth and the nationality part I covered, but right now I'm in Regensburg Bavaria(mmmm..... beer country) because I'm doing a study abroad and an internship. It's cool here, the Bavarians know how to drink(I think that if I drank that much my BAC would be high enough to kill me...... isn't beer great :D ).Quote:

Sonu, you say that you're nationality is German, how is that possible, I thought that you're supposed to have German blood(or something like that)? Well that's atleast what I was taught back in my University in the States(and the professor is German, so I took her word for it).
Well....I lived for over 15 years in Germany and somehow they gave me the red passport ( first green ) :-). Yes, You can say that I have the german blood in me, cause I am still thinking in German...lived to long there !Quote:

And how about Ireland, and probably a lot of other countries. It is difficult to compare as well because they might be different types of alcohol drinking.
French for example will rarely drink a lot at one time, but have one or two glasses of wine with most of their meals. That can be a lot at the end of the week. But that does not really make them heavy drinkers. :rolleyes:
Irish on the other end, will drink only one to three evenings a week and almost nothing the rest of the time, but on these occasion, they can drink a lot. I have heard recently that they don't feel like they have been drinking at all before reaching at least the 6th pint of beer. And most are easily able to drink 10 or more during the night. :p
And I am sure other countries will drink different types of alcohol, and in different ways. :D :D :cool:
6 pints... Hum, if it's Guiness then that's a LOT. 6 pints of normal beer is Ok though.
Well...since we are talking about some other countries: In India people dont drink beer or wine, instead they drink Whiskey. Only very very rare people dring beer and the rest drinks water or juice :D
Sonu
Actually it depends. I was talking about beers in general.
As for me, I would be able to drink many more pints of Guinness than of any other beer, because there is less gaz in Guinness than in most other beers. But I have never reached the 10th pint so far, and I am not drinking as much as I used to, so I guess I'll never reached that number ...
