Hi Ray
Looks like you could drink me under the table in those days.
I know alcohol is a neurotoxin, but what I don'r know is how much it takes to cause PN.
It may sound stupid, but I really enjoy a glass of wine with dinner. I'm 79. I suspect nobody can tell me whether giving up the wine will improve the rest of my life, or will I just be giving up another pleasure for no gain.
I think I'll just stick with the wine.
Here's to ya!

Hi, Jeff
When I finally quit––and it wasn't a matter of "one final drink, and that's that;" it took me easily two years before I had that final drink––two temptations lingered; one was seeing someone sip a lovely glass of some golden beverage on the big 70mm movie screen, and the other was when friends were enjoying a glass of wine with dinner and I wasn't it. The 70mm temptation faded pretty quickly. The glass of wine with dinner? That has persisted, although I've no trouble resisting it any longer.
By the way, I, too, am 79.
Ray
