Look at the BAC calculator on this website and try to understand it. I weigh 210 pounds. See how much it takes to get over the .08 threshold where a person is considered intoxicated in this state. Those are the rules and I try my best to play within them. A person can drink 1 beer per hour and never even get to that point. You burn off the equivalent of 1 beer(or equivalent) per hour. http://bloodalcoholcalculator.org/#LinkURL
