MM is reporting on his current state.
In vino veritas.

I only said Italians because I was raised in a large Italian family where wine accompanied just about every meal. The word around the house, as long as I could remember, was that a glass of wine with every mean was good for the heart and the stomach.

I do hope your nasty tone and insult wasn't intended for me.

Same to you. By "Italians" do you mean all the Germans and Greeks who happen to accidentally live on the peninsula of Italy? Myself, I miss those big gallon jugs of Mogen David.

It does not take much red wine for me to know that you are a fucking idiot. When I am sober, you seem reasonable.

Got to "prove" it and waste more capital creating a patented drug to replace red wine (with different side effects.)

no, duh? They had to spend money to study this? Italians have known this for centuries.
