From hacks!

If you order a scotch of any kind, "on the rocks", in a fine Scottish Pub, you'd be called a right wanker indeed.

The ice actually changes the chemical makeup of the tanins, which give the Scotch's flavor. The dilution is not the problem. Actually it's common to dilute a scotch with a little purified water, to make it a little more palatable for those who don't like it's harsh bite.

There's nothing wrong with appreciating Alcohol. You young'uns may look at us as alcoholics, but you are clueless. In time young weedhoppers, in time.....
