[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My non drinking mom died of cancer. My non drinking aunt has Parkinson’s. Life is too short. [/quote] Those genes are a good reason not to drink.[/quote] PP and my drinking, smoking grandmothers lived to nearly 90. I know we’d all like to think we can control things, but we don’t.[/quote] there are SOME things you can control. Good for your drinking, smoking grandmothers. They're definitely exceptions. Statistical exceptions are interesting and maybe something to be personally pleased about, but shouldn't be relied on to make any informed decision. There are people who inhaled asbestos fibers who didn't develop mesothelioma (not many!) but we wouldn't look at those people and say "can't control everything, I'm going to go rip down some 1950s insulation without a mask!"[/quote]
