Article in the mirror claiming loophole.
This has come up again and again but it's never been cleared up. At least that I know of.

I think this statement just about sums up how smart a move that article was.

So you heard it straight from the horses mouth there. Aclohol isn't a chemical after all. <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: -->
