The Women’s Christian Temperance Union, to which we owe the failed experiment of prohibition, still exists. It claimed 5k members in 2012, down from 350k a century earlier.

On the website it tells you how you join. You print out the temperance pledge, and mail it to Evanston IL along with $20.

No. Plaque is on your teeth. There might be a coprolite in a while though.
