Myth 4: Drinking out of aluminum cans or cooking in aluminum pots and pans 
can lead to Alzheimer's disease.
Reality: During the 1960s and 1970s, aluminum emerged as a possible suspect 
in Alzheimer's. This suspicion led to concern about exposure to aluminum 
through everyday sources such as pots and pans, beverage cans, antacids and 
antiperspirants. Since then, studies have failed to confirm any role for 
aluminum in causing Alzheimer's. Experts today focus on other areas of 
research, and few believe that everyday sources of aluminum pose any threat.

 I've learned that aluminum powder is dangerous. It's used in explosives! So 
be careful with this stuff. Don't grind it into a power and mix it with the 
other ingredients.. then drink it. Get too close to a spark and you could 
damage your coco.

 I'll take my chances with cheap beer, in ALUMINUM CANS. They fit my koozie.

 'Normal People Worry Me" I have no idea where I got it from. Sorry.

 I have other, equally clever statements on Koozies. This one just happens 
to be handy.
