Hacking Vodka
Found on Slashdot on Friday, 19 November 2004
A group of geeks aimed to find out whether running cheap vodka through a brita water filter would make it drinkable. They claim after several passes through the filter the cheap vodka surpassed the premium Ketel One in drinkability tests. I think they should have done the test 'double blind' although drinking Vladmir Vodka probably could make you go blind anyways... =)
This is one of the greatest scientific experiments recently. The sales of Brita filters will skyrocket. One of the best comments on their site was "Tessa (my cat) licked the glass, and didn't die".
