The AWOL Machine made the local Austin news last night. The device has not been sold to any bars in the area yet, but Fox decided it was worty enough to comment on. And apparently me too. I suppose I’m mainly interested because last night was the first time I had seen this contraption.
A spokesperson for TABC (Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission) said a bunch of stuff like (I’m paraphrasing) “this might lead to greater than average alcohol consumption” and a doctor said something to the effect of “inhaling anything should be done with caution”.
Blah, blah, blah. Talking heads. This is the stupidest gimmick I’ve ever seen. Don’t inhale alcohol. Or anything else, for that matter. Except air. That’s my advice.
