BLOOD ALCOHOL LEVEL
As I have known and seen with my own eyes, many of my friends still think that, when a person pass out or puke after a heavy session of drinking, it means he is not an experienced drinker and stuff. Well, the experience part is actually only 30% correct. (So dear Mr. Jacob, there's nuthin' to feel ashamed of, about that nite with the Gang at that "Garden" !).A lot of factors govern his decisive state of whether to puke or not, like his present state of health, whether he's having any stomach problem, his current fitness etc... Why, i've known quite a no. of ppl who can finish two bottles of Whiskey all by themselves everynite, and then suddenly one fine nite, they can't even take a small sip, otherwise they'll puke.
Another factor is the "Blood Alcohol Level". Doctors have come up with a Chart determining how much a person of a particular body weight can drink in how many hours. Voila....
