OT: Whisky (was Re: PAW: A good breakfast)

[Steve Jolly]

I have to disagree there - as an Englishman with a large number of 
Scottish friends and whisky-snob acquaintances, I can assure you that 
the idea of drinking single malts with ice is widely (although not 
universally) regarded as heresy over here. :-)  The optional addition of 
a small quantity of water is generally accepted though.

A single malt with *ICE* in?!  Let's just hope there aren't any scots on
the list... ;-)
