    hi frog :) when pouring alkohol over those heated stones it gasifies as water does do too. When alkohol gasifies, breathing that steam tends to go into your lungs and as it does it penetrates your bloodsystem and via that you get so f**king drunk so f**king fast.

    The question was whether or not a Russian "Banya" session counts as a visit in sauna.
    I am more than aware of the effects of inhaling gasified alcohol :@drunk:, and the speed it gets to your bloodstreem, as compared to the "traditional, down the throat route" :D
    We once had an integrational weekend in Białowieża Forrest (in one of my previous workplaces) and the visit to that Banya coined a new saying in our workplace: "na bani jak po bani" ("stoned as if after Banya") :D

    Hehe frog, thanks for your reply.It's true that after being in sauna one is very relaxed and calm and clean as a child. :)

    Always have a glass of water before you go into a sauna. 2 types of saunas, wet or dry. Wet is best, cuz the hot ones are just dry hot and if you breathe in real fast, you can burn the skin that lines your nostrils. Never go into a sauna alone, you can pass out and possibly die. Have another person with you. There are saunas out there that can be locked by a person outside the sauna. Talk about dumb. Even a gold wouldn't make a sauna like that. wet saunas are good for muscle aches and stuff.
