To anyone who enjoys a glass of wine...

And to those who, for whatever reason, don't and are always seen with a glass of water in their hand and a sanctimonious look upon their face.

As Ben Franklin said:
"In wine there is wisdom,
In beer there is freedom,
In water there is bacteria."

In a number of carefully controlled trials, Scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 litre of water each day,
At the end of the year we would have absorbed More than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. Coli) - bacteria found in faeces.
In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However,
We do NOT run that risk when drinking wine, beer, tequila, rum, whiskey or any other liquor, because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember:
Water = Poop
Wine = Health
Therefore, it's better to drink wine and say something stupid, than to drink water and be full of crap.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information. I'm posting it as a public service.

Thanks to James.
