#2 Um, AutoBartender...you may want to 86 that last delivery from Lyari Liquors. The Kharadar inspector just called and left a message that there's been some, er...irregularities in the quality control monitoring. He said to make sure you used the long-handled tongs and safety googles...maybe even a lead apron.

#3 We need to sponsor some educational programs for these moonshiners so they don't accidentally distill methanol (wood alcohol) instead of ethanol (drinking alcohol). The way I figure it, anyone who drinks isn't a good candidate for jihad.

#7 I wonder what they were using for sour mash?

As for the lead solder Ship, actualy most of the lead comes from the old truck radiator used for the condenser.

I wonder if someone tried to "Purify" denatured alcohol? That could explain the mass poisioning.

#10 I don't get it...was the liquor poisoned or was the proof simply too high?
