""Back in my GI days, a kid from the Georgia boonies came back to the hooch from a weekend pass with a screw-top jar filled with a clear liquid. He said it was white lightning, and he invited me to try some.

I don't remember tasting anything, but I remember a sensation like I'd squirted a stream of lighter fluid down my gullet and then tossed in a match. My eyes filled up with tears, and there was this terrible burning sensation in my nose.
