Thank you for your response. It's a bit of surprise to me, because I had always heard the opposite, that daily drinking lets one build up a tolerance while binge drinking repeatedly hits the liver with more than it can handle, but I suppose that was just folk wisdom. I've cooled off a bit over the years (originally I drank to deal with depression that I eventually "got over"), but maybe it's time I took another hard look at myself.
