AlcoholEdu
I'm finally doing that AlcoholEdu thing. I just wanted to note that it stinks because it doesn't work in Firefox. And it is not standards-compliant and it does use proprietary browser-specific Javascript.

You will survive, Elliot. Take a deep breath, let the woman's voice run for a couple minutes, occasionally press Next, and then take the final exam.
Did you exorcise Sean's computer?
Well, it's faster and it shuts down properly, but the ethernet connection still doesn't work..
I barely passed the exam :)
"Here are the topics you missed on the Exam:
Most wine glasses or plastic cups hold more than the size of one standard drink. In one study, it was found that students were really drinking 53% more alcohol than they realized when they were drinking wine, and 92% more alcohol than they realized when they were having mixed drinks.
If you suspect that someone has overdosed on alcohol, there are several steps to take. First and foremost, don’t leave this person alone. Make sure they’re not lying flat on their back; turn them on one side, so that, if they vomit, they won’t choke. Don’t give them anything to eat or drink.
The body gets rid of alcohol primarily by using enzymes created by the liver. In addition to getting broken down by enzymes, a small amount of alcohol leaves the body unchanged through bodily fluids like urine and sweat, or in the breath.
“Brownouts” are times when someone has to be prompted to remember what they did but can eventually pull their memories together.
Athletes tend to drink more heavily than non-athletes, and when athletes are team leaders or members of Greek organizations, the levels are even higher.
When the BAC gets in the range of 0.10-0.15 slurred speech and inappropriate laughter or tears may occur. Problems with balance and motor coordination can make it difficult for a person to walk normally. Sleepiness, nausea, and vomiting often follow. Because of problems with judgment and perception, a person with BAC over 0.10 might not even be aware of how impaired they are.
In a recent nationwide survey, approximately 1 in 10 students reported being pushed, hit, or assaulted by a drunk person.
Hazing, with or without alcohol involved, is illegal in most states and has been condemned and forbidden by most organizations."
Oh, but the wireless connection works, so he can access the Internet without problem.
