- Could and do. Rush is dry and has been for several years now. The last
- time we had an alcohol based rush even was the spring of 1988 and we're
- still here. I'm not even going to try to say that we don't drink,
- or that underage people in the house don't drink. But, alcohol is far
- from the social focus of the house.
