Center Lines: 28 Ah. Everybody with their own hangover cure and most of them contradictory. My own pet cure is: (1) Don't go to bed until you are reasonably sober, that is you have metabolized or otherwise gotten rid of (boy, is *that* a euphemism!) the better part of the alchohol in your system. (2) Drink plenty of fruit juice or water -- hyperfluidate yourself to ward off the effects of dehydration. A friend of mine who is an epidimiologist believes dehydration to be one of the primary causes of hangover discomfort. (3) Eat bulk. Bread, cereal (with milk), or anything similar so as to settle your stomach. (4) Take two aspirin and go to bed. Since I have been going through this ritual my mornings after have been considerably more pleasant, though I haven't found a way to whip the "washed out" feeling I get the next day.
