Interesting -- have never had a problem with red wine or hard liquor (limited as 
that has been, save fore the period when we returned from California and had my 
grandmother insisting on sharing her nightly Lemonade-pitcher-full of Manhattans 
<g>.

The Magnesium deficiency's interesting -- my doctor once said it was potassium 
(eat more bananas) but that never seemed to solve the problem. And when it comes 
right down to it, few beers seem to go with bananas anyway,

Cheers,
