OK, that's certainly granted. I have the conception (which may be wrong) that 
the majority of Everclear available and consumed by the people that consume 
Everclear is actually sub-perfect, and an inbred cousin to wood alcohol.

If Heaton wishes to go on record as saying that the majority of Everclear, by 
bulk, is actually a high quality pure refined product, finer than vodka and 
containing no impurities, I will retract my opinion. 

... I just thought it was usually pretty rough stuff.
