The Nam in the News: Alcoholism

A study of Pennsylvania's heaviest-drinking counties has been released, and surprise! We're on it. But don't get too discouraged--we're only #31. The winner is actually Elk County, with 26% drinking excessively.

The real question is, is the county a mess because of heavy drinking or are we all drinking heavily because the county is a mess? The only thing I know for sure is that no matter how drunk you are, the Laurel Mall move-theater seats are still gross and still make you uneasy.
