           Well folks let’s talk about the bad side of the whole drinking thing. BAC as you know is the percentage of Alcohol that’s in your blood according to how many drinks you had. Its measured as mass per volume, which means if you blow a 0.06 you have 0.06 grams of alcohol to every 100 grams of blood.           Generally the consumption of two drinks (containing a total of 20 grams or 0.705 ounces) of alcohol will increase the average person's BAC approximately 0.05% (a single drink consumed each hour after the first two will keep the BAC around 0.05%), but there is a ton of variation according to body weight, sex, and body fat percentage. If you haven’t developed some super human tolerance to alcohol it’s pretty simple, 0.35% will give you alcohol poisoning, 0.55% will kill the average person. In some cases long time drinkers have lived thru percents as high as 0.9%. In the good old US of A the limit is 0.08%.            I looked thru a few BAC calculators and found one that I like mainly because it lets you add different kind of drinks to the day’s total. Try it and see if it’s for you, if you don’t like this one find one and use it. It will help you put into perspective just where you are (after a few) or were (the day after a bender). Remember it’s drinking not Russian roulette. BAC calculator
