>        A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo,
>  and
>      when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the
>      back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the
>      herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole
>  is
>      maintained or even improved by the regular culling of the weakest
>      members. In much the same way, the human brain can operate only as
>      fast as the slowest brain cells through which the electrical signals
>      pass.Recent epidemiological studies have shown that while excessive
>      intake of alcohol kills off brain cells, it attacks the slowest and
>      weakest brain cells first. Thus, regular consumption of beer helps
>      eliminate the weaker cells, constantly making the brain a faster and
>      more efficient machine.The result of this in-depth study verifies
>  and
>      validates the causal link between all-weekend parties and job
>  related
>      performance. It also explains why, after a few short years of
>  leaving
>      a university and getting married, most professionals cannot keep up
>      with the performance of the new graduates.
>      Only those few that stick to the strict regimen of voracious
>      alcoholic consumption can maintain the intellectual levels that they
>      achieve during their college years.
>      So, this is a call to arms. As our country is losing its
>      technological edge, we must not shudder in our homes.Get back into
>      the bars.  Quaff that pint.   Share than handle.Your company and
>      country need you to be at your peak, and you shouldn't deny yourself
>      the career that you could have. Take life by the bottle and be all
>      that you can be. Forward this to all of your friends, acquaintances
>      and co-workers that may be in danger of losing their edge.
