Would guess he would get the best part of his plea deal sentence so 7 years, then as a celebrity sex offender he would have been locked up 23 hours a day with one hour exercise. No guarantee he would see daylight for his sentence either as a lot of the exercise areas are underground. When he got out it would be sex offenders register for life with heavy restrictions on where he could go and live. Little sympathy really, every one of the 50,000 pictures he had was a horror story for children and their families |

This is covered up in the episode where Sam comes back. Speaking of Cheers, the episode with Frasier's Mum is very interesting as her personality is very different to how she's described in the show. Of course, people probably are going to remember the positives when reminiscing about loved ones, and it's established in the show that she wasn't as perfect as they say. ZOMG Spoiler!

"Her alcohol level was 330mg per 100ml of blood, more than four times the legal limit for driving of 80mg." That doesn't strike me as very much at all. |

So that's 0.33 BAC, give or take. This says that's twelve "drinks" (quantity not defined; I think it's a pint) into someone who weighs 150 pounds. Also: Quote: .300 - Many people lose consciousness
.400 - Most people lose consciousness and some die .450 - Breathing stops. This is a fatal dose for most people. |

Playing around with this suggests that to get a BAC of 0.32, a 17 stone guy would have to drink 13 pints of 4.5% beer/cider/etc in less than an hour. That sounds like a lot to me. Alternatively, an entire bottle of whisky or vodka gets him to 0.29, if drunk in less than an hour. Four bottles of wine gets him to 0.31. A 14.5 stone guy is "only" 11 pints to hit 0.34, to give you an idea of how weight varies it. |

It's 7.5 pints (or 132 oz, irritatingly), according to the little calculator widget at the bottom ([edit] Of the first page) But according to their calculator I can drink five pints in an hour and still be under 80mg per 100ml. So perhaps it's one to take with a pinch of salt. |

Hearthly wrote: What is that, about six pints or something? Depending on body size etc, yes. A pint and a half drunk quickly is where you start to get close to the limit. That said, by the time you've drunk six pints you are starting to metabolise the first drinks so it may take more over an evening to get to that level. |
