No chip i got it right; it was .42 bac. That is exactly my point a normal person would be close to death if not dead. But an alcoholic who has twent to thirty years of tolerance built into their drinking habits can blow incredible bac's without showing outward signs of intoxication, just as this woman did, she was a full blown functional alcoholic. Just like people who take the pharmacuticals (like oxi, valium etc) their tolerance grows with the abuse making it neccassary to consume more and more to reach the "high" they are seeking. I'm not a doctor, councelor or a pharmacist but my years in law enforcement taught me this quite evidently.
