In moderation, beer is good for you

That's the story linked to over at Instapundit:  Ten Surprising Health Benefits of Beer. I am reminded of a saying attributed to Benjamin Franklin:  "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."  It turns out that Franklin was actually talking about wine, but thanks to the marvels of modern science, we now know that such a sentiment can apply to beer as well. Cheers!
