Not only in vino veritas

Got an interesting email from a friend saying: "To my dear friends who enjoy a glass of wine or beer... and those who don't and are always seen with a bottle of water in their hand. As Ben Franklin said: in wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria. In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 litre of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of E.Coli(bacteria found in faeces). In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop. However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (tequila, rum, scotch, whisky, etc.) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting. Remember: Water = Poop, Wine = Health. Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of shit."
