There's a study out that says if we all reduce our alcohol intake to a quarter of a unit a day, then 4,500 odd lives will be saved every year.
Not sure I want to save the lives of 4,500 alcoholics every year. Imagine them shambling aimlessly around our town centres for the rest of their lives - stone, cold sober. I shudder to think of it.

Technically they'll be "prolonged" rather than "saved", surely?
