Calif Bill,
The best part about Basskisser's argument is the definition he provided told
him why Schnapps is not a whiskey, but he must have been too stoned to be
able to read it.
BK's definition of whiskey was:

"Whiskey is a barrel-aged distilled spirit made from grain or malt. It
differs from other types of grain alcohol in that it absorbs colour
and flavour from the barrels during aging,
it retains more flavour from the fermented mash by being distilled at
a lower proof and being less thoroughly filtered. As a result, it is much
more
flavoursome than vodka. Unlike gin and akvavit, it doesn't have other
flavourings added."

Don, be nice to Henry, he's just an old drunkard, and his mind
has
been eaten up by cheap whiskey long ago.

Post proof he drinks cheap whiskey.

Okay!

Well you have ice fishing. I really enjoyed doing that in Canada
some
years
back. Nothing like a nice shanty, a tip-up and a pint of
Peppermint
Schapps....


No proof yet. Schapps is not whiskey, and may not be cheap. Next try
at a
proof?

First place, it's Schnapps, both you, and Henry spelled it wrong.
Second, Schnapps IS made from grain alcohol, or....whiskey.

Cut and paste for the spelling. Grain Alky is not necessarily whiskey.
