OK...I have had many a glass of Scotch in the past 30+ years and I'm pretty sure I could tell if I was drinking "rubbing alcohol" instead! Had a dependent wife come into the ER while her husband was on deployment complaining of a stomach ache after possibly drinking "rubbing alcohol". The female doc had her close her eyes and stick out her tongue and the doc opened an alcohol prep pad and ran it over the patient's tongue and asked her if what she drank tasted like that? After the patient got finished spitting and sputtering and said "NO", the doc assured her that she had probably not ingested "rubbing alcohol"!
