It seems a lot of people equate 'heavy drinker' with problem drinker. I don't know why that's the automatic assumption.
I'd suggest that 5 a night, 12 times a year, is probably more than the 'average' Canadian. If you say yes, you're a heavy drinker in that you're above average. If you say no, you're below average, or a 'light drinker'.
Are people here more comfortable being an 'above-average' drinker as opposed to a 'heavy' drinker? Even if they imply the same amount of alcohol imbibed?
I think a lot of us are bound to fall over the average, simply due to CalPuck's demographics (example: probably %95 under-35 male??)
