Light beer was actually designed to reduce alcohol consumption. Very few people are brought to the local detox center because they were drinking beer, especially light beer. Distilled spirits are the leading cause for visits to detox.Demonizing beer companies because they make a "lighter" alcohol content beer proves how badly some people completely miss the boat. Again, people were manipulated into thinking "tastes great, less filling", but the real purpose was to be more filling, less drunk. Light beers are heavily promoted at sporting events, because they know that their fan base is filled with beer drinkers, and the goal for the event was to get thru it without casualties. So while some folks think the beer companies are ripping them off, they are actually saving their ass.'ner

Like it or not, folks, I think Garrison Keillor will be remembered as an American icon on par with Will Rogers and Mark Twain. For me, Prairie got old eventually but you can't help but applaud the achievement represented by keeping a weekly radio show of that kind alive for 40 years.
