Reply to "Room in the Inn to open for daytime shelter"

If anyone likes to drink, that's their business, but please don't do it when outside in cold weather. When alcohol is ingested, it filters the heat to the dermis (why you feel warmer), but that makes it much easier for the heat to leave the body, plus it robs vital organs of heat. If you give alcohol to anyone who's been out in freezing temps for 30 minutes or more, you just might kill them.

You're also going to miss that question on your first aid certification test...
