Subject: The Ideal Drinking Flask

Dear Friends of Webtender,

   Knowing, by Superinteressante (a brazilian scientific magazine), that the 
ideal dose of alcohol for an average male human being it is about 1-2 doses of
40% vodka, I decided to determine the ideal total volume for a cylindrical 
flask that it could contain this ideal dose.

   After some researches and calculations, I finally concluded that a flask of 
2.7 x 7.4 cm, which give us an total volume of 62.7 cc (62.7 ml), is the ideal 
drinking flask for kept an amount of vodka of 1.57 times the ideal dose.

   The same Superinteressante scientific magazine tells us that an amount of 1 
to 2 doses is only beneficial. This ideal dose don't harm our health, don't 
deteriorate our social relactions or disturb our normal apparence. According 
to the scientific magazine, this ideal dose cause an reduction of stress, a 
lack of shame for to talk and enhanced social interactions between peoples.

   Considering the ideal drinking flask contains 62.7 ml of alcoholic beverage 
such as vodka 40%, 25.1 ml will be pure ethylic alcohol. This 25.1 ml, 
considering 40 ml of vodka de "standard dose of vodka" which contains 16 ml of 
pure ethylic alcohol, divided by 16 ml will give us an amount 1.57 times the 
ideal dose.

   Considering, Superinteressante, 1 to 2 vodka doses the ideal vodka dose for 
the average male human being, we will consider 1.5 the average of the average.

   You can find a flask with exactly it's measures I told upwards at the C 
Vitamin flask of Cebion/Roche C Vitamin large pills (orange coloured, 1 gram 
large pills, 10 grames total weight filled of pills).
