aceman,

Nice post. However I call nonsense on (1) the Fleming psychoanalysis, (2) the Vodkatini thing, and finally (3) the bruising lore.

However, that being said, I hope you enjoy whatever you are drinking.

Next time I pass thru London on my way to Edinburgh, however, I will give you the opportunity to prove your assertions to me, in person, by purchasing the referenced cocktails for me to imbibe. Most cordial of you!
