South historically had more extremes on alcohol use About: Biggest factor in alchohol abuse not wet or dry To ColumbiaMagazine.com I don't know if it is still true but historically the South has had more extremes in its alcohol consumption: many people who completely abstain and a group of people who "drank to get drunk" on a regular basis. I didn't know that dry counties still existed until I moved here. I always figured that the main function of a dry county was that there were no legal sales of alcohol in restaurants and there were no bars. s/Dan Phillips 2009-07-24 07:38:25 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Biggest factor in alchohol abuse not wet or dry Thinks edge on abuse may be in dry counties, but thinks the big factor is upbringing - family teaching - is more of a factor in alcohol abuse than whether county is wet or dry By Bobby D. Morrison International Management & Engineering Consultant I've been watching the debate on dry, moist or wet on Columbia Magazine for many months. As you know, I have worked and lived around the world and throughout the USA. I tried to think of the dry places I have worked or lived. About the only place is Adair County. I haven't observed abuse of being wet in the many places I have been. I think I have observed more abuse in dry locations. In countries like Honduras anyone of any age can buy as long as they have the money, no age limit.
