"Drink Wheel"<A HREF="http://www.intox.com/Credits.html#Drink Wheel"><sup>1</sup></A> is a form that you can fill out. Upon completion we will instantly compute your estimated blood/breath alcohol concentration ("BAC") based on the information that you have provided and return that estimate to you. It is presented as a public service to Intoximeters web site visitors. Its primary purpose is to provide useful information about the responsible use of alcohol. <H3>Why is it called a "Drink Wheel"?</H3> We call it the "Drink Wheel" because it is based on various paper and cardboard BAC calculators that are given out in alcohol awareness programs, some of which are in the form of a wheel that you can spin around to calculate your estimated BAC based on what and how much you have had to drink.<P> When we have this WWW publishing figured out a little bit better, we would hope that this form will look a little bit more like one of these "Drink Wheels". <H3>Disclaimer</H3> It would be extremely foolish for us to pretend that our "Drink Wheel" can tell you what your BAC actually is, first because it would open us up to an incredible amount of potential liability and second if it really did work accurately there would be no need for anyone to buy the instruments that we make and sell.<P> A person's actual BAC is dependent on many complex factors, including their physical condition (body composition, health etc...) and what they have recently ingested (including food, water, medications and other drugs). This site includes a more detailed discussion of the <A HREF="http://www.intox.com/Physiology.html">Pharmacology and Disposition of alcohol in humans</A>.<P> The results that are generated are rough estimates of an average healthy person's BAC assuming typical beverage sizes, recipes and alcohol content. The BAC estimates generated by the <B>Drink Wheel</B> should not be used to infer anyone's fitness to work, drive or perform any other task or duty.<P> <center> <H2>Please Enjoy, but<br> Don't Drink And Drive</H2> <hr> <A NAME="Drink_Wheel"><blink><H2>The Drink Wheel</H2></blink></A> </center> <form method="post" action="ACGIs/Drink_Wheel.acgi"> I have had <input type=text size=3 maxlength=3 name=Number> <select name="DrinkType"> <option>Reduced alcohol beer(s)</option> <option>Light beer(s)</option> <option selected>US beer(s)</option> <option>Pint(s) of beer</option> <option>Malt liquor(s)</option> <option>Glass(es) of table wine</option> <option>Glass(es) of Champagne</option> <option>Glass(es) of Fortified/Dessert wine</option> <option>Bloody Mary(s)</option> <option>Gin and Tonic(s)</option> <option>Highball(s)</option> <option>Irish Coffee(s)</option> <option>On the Rocks</option> <option>Pina Colada(s)</option> <option>Screwdriver(s)</option> <option>Tom Collins</option> <option>Whiskey Sour(s)</option> <option>Margarita(s)</option> <option>Airline miniature(s)</option> <option>Gimlet(s)</option> <option>Old-fashioned(s)</option> <option>Mint Julep(s)</option> <option>Black Russian(s)</option> <option>Dry Martini(s)</option> <option>Manhattan(s)</option> <option>Rob Roy(s)</option> <option>Double(s) on the Rocks</option> <option>Frozen Daquiri(s)</option> </select> over a period of <input type=text size=3 maxlength=3 name=Hours> hours<A HREF="http://www.intox.com/Credits.html#Drink Wheel"><sup>2</sup></A>. <p> <b>I am</b> <input type=radio name="Sex" value="male" checked >Male <input type=radio name="Sex" value="female">Female (<A HREF="http://www.intox.com/Physiology.html#Gender">Explanation</A> of gender differences in Blood Alcohol Concentration)<p> and I weigh <input type=text size=3 maxlength=3 name=Weight> <input type=radio name="MassUnits" value="pounds" checked >Pounds <input type=radio name="MassUnits" value="kilos">Kilograms<p> and I live in <select name="Country"> <option>Australia</option> <option>Austria</option> <option>Belgium</option> <option>Canada</option> <option>Cyprus</option> <option>Finland</option> <option>France</option> <option>Korea</option> <option value="Hong_Kong">Hong Kong</option> <option value="Netherlands">Netherlands</option> <option>Norway</option> <option>Portugal</option> <option value="South_Africa">South Africa</option> <option>Spain</option> <option>Sweden</option> <option>Taiwan</option> <option value="UK"> United Kingdom</option> <option selected value="USA">United States</option> </select> (so that the result is displayed in the appropriate units). <p> <center> <input type=submit value="Estimate my Blood/Breath Alcohol Concentration"> <input type=reset value="Clear Data"> </center> <center> <hr> <H4><A HREF="Drink_Wheel.html">Drink Wheel</A><br> <A HREF="http://www.intox.com/Intox_Info.html">Company</A> | <A HREF="http://www.intox.com/Products.html">Products</A> | <A HREF="http://www.intox.com/Product_info.html">Info request</A> | <A HREF="http://www.intox.com/Reps.html">Reps</A> | <A HREF="http://www.intox.com/Contact_Info.html">Co. contacts</A><br> <A HREF="http://www.intox.com/Resources.html">Related resources</A><br> <a href="http://www.intox.com/default.html">Home</a></H4> <hr> <I>©Intoximeters Inc. 1995</I><BR> If you have questions or comments about this web site<BR> please e-mail them to:<BR> <a href=mailto:glenn4@mindspring.com><address>glenn4@mindspring.com</address></a> <hr> </center> </form>
