    I think that you saying that something which is about 30 seconds and 5 clicks of a mouse away from you is too inaccessible is a cop out on your part, to be honest. If people really want access to the information, it is readily available to them.

    I'm not talking about me. its accessible as long as they have internet access. So your ruling out a huge portion of the population.

    'Liquor liability' trial of barmen set for next year
    TWO barmen charged with the unlawful killing of an English man who died from acute alcohol intoxication on the night of his birthday will have their case heard next year.

    The criminal case -- the first "liquor liability" trial in Ireland -- was brought against the two bar staff following a lengthy probe by gardai under the supervision of Supt Tony Cogan of Thurles Garda Station.

    Not too sure how they get their data, but at least 36% Don't & its not clear what access is? If you used your arguement we could do away with speed signs and just have a website with the information on it for motorists

    Do you really need explaining why speed limits - which can change every couple of hundred yards - are different to general alcohol consumption information?
