    Done at a university here in Toronto, and tested with a very patriotic message! :) http://arstechnica.com/science/2013/12/two-researchers-send-a-text-message-using-vodka/[^] Would have thought that they'd try this with beer instead, but whatever works..... -EM

      Seems like a waste of perfectly good vodka!

        Loads of text messages have been sent with vodka. Most of them "I really still love you, let's get back together" only much worse spelled. And often sent to the wrong person.

          It's like smoke signals but with wasted booze. I wonder what baud rate they get?

              "The researchers had difficulty in explaining how their concept differs from the old smoke-signals that the native Americans used. Probably because there is no difference, and practical uses seem to be comparable. The conclusion was that more research (and funding) would be required." Get a elephanting job.

                They have one. What you have missed is the subtext: They have a job that involves copious testing of booze that is supplied to them for free and expected to disappear during the day... Now, when I was twenty, that would have been my ideal job! :-O
