Hey Nancy!   
      
    NB> I was talking about water as a beverage   
      
   That works for me.   
      
    NB> I'd not want to drink a bottle a day of the single malt, tasty as   
    NB> it is   
      
   Not to mention cost.  Perhaps that is why it is "99 bottles of beer on the   
   wall" rather than "99 bottles of single malt scotch on the wall"?  Also the   
   song doesn't specify the rate of removal and passage of said bottles so cost   
   would be a very serious consideration given the rate of the singing of the   
   entire song.  Mind you they are being passed around which implies multiple   
   consumers.   
      
   Hopefully cost is being shared.   
      
   Life is good,   
   Maurice
