If I recall correctly, a politician's wife back in the 80's was hospitalized for drinking isopropyl.

(Just looked it up on Wikipedia - I recall correctly)

You can be hospitalized for drinking too much ethanol, or too much water. Are those not drinkable?

I'm an ER physician. I have worked in a poison control center. I take care of the people that drink IPA. I work on the Navajo Native American reservation, where this isn't terribly uncommon.
