I am sure it will be a hot item if it does materialize and isn't just a hoax. -----Original Message----- From: audio-pals-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:audio-pals-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ray T.

Think of how that might revolutionize serving of alcohol on long flights. Ray T.

It mentioned camping which isn't going to really matter, but I think it would be borderline with kayaking. Yes, you probably are getting wet and that may provide some hydration as little as it may be, but you also are having to exert energy to paddle the boat. If I am not mistaken it said it was approved in the United States and mentions that it will be sold here and I think across the borders (internationally), but it doesn't mention anything about it being approved to be sold internationally does it? Maybe because the focus was on it being able to be sold in the U.S. or maybe other countries do not have as strict of a policy as the United States does or at least the countries where they plan to sell it internationally, but I have heard at the university with certain things some countries have an even more strict policy as to what they will and won't let in. I believe the childhood psychopathologies class was talking specifically about food coloring and or dyes that are in food not being allowed that we do allow. However, if they are that strict on things that change the color of food I cannot imagine that they would be lenient with other areas dealing with things that are consumed. If you cannot tell I enjoy analyzing things and picking them apart *LOL*. Thank you for sharing the article, it will be interesting to see if this does hit the shelves. However, I do think regardless of it being a joke or at least one that is going to come with a lot of warnings on the label/package it is an interesting concept to say the least. -----Original Message----- From: audio-pals-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:audio-pals-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ray T.

One comment on the website led me to believe that and it is due to alcohol being dehydrating. Doesn't seem wise to dehydrate yourself more after a bike ride. -----Original Message----- From: audio-pals-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:audio-pals-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ray T.

The more I think about it the more I think the thing was done as a lark. Ray T.

But I'm sure people will try. On Apr 23, 2014, at 6:01 PM, Ray T. Mahorney <mahorney.r.t@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I think the pubs would get wise to that one PDQ. > > > Ray T.
