Oxy's site is linked.ABSINTHE IS EVIL!

I don't know. Have you looked at it? It might actually debunk the same myths that give its title so much potential marketing power.

That was the 1st book about absinthe that I ever read. I found it an interesting read. I can, if nothing else, credit that book with sparking my interest in the subject.

Edit: And unfortunately it only perpetuates the myths.

That's fantastic for Oxy!

Linked on Amazon... !!!

Well, the "Book Description" says:



deam, since you have actually read this goober of yellow journalism, why not log on to the amazon.com site and be the first to submit a REVIEW of the book?

It'll give you a chance to do some debunking, and steer people toward accurate information instead of Art Bell-type schlock.

Normally I would. The problem is: I signed that book out of the library sometime in 1999 and have read a bunch of other books on absinthe in the meantime. That means that there's a possibility that, if I review the book, I might be unwittingly reviewing parts from other books as well.

So here's what I'm going to do: head down to the library and sign the book out again THEN write a review. Just give me a week or so...
