In 1826, residents of Trumbull County formed a temperance society, and Summit County residents followed suit three years later.
So, again, "no."I think that people might be mixing up the Temperance League and the Anti-Saloon League. The Anti-Saloon League was a leading proponent of prohibition. Their headquarters was in Westerville, and the library still has ASL memorabilia set up like a museum.

Awesome. Just spotted this:
The drink was developed by three alumni of The Ohio State University: Chris Hunter, Jeff Wright, and Jaisen Freeman.

Silly (and likely exaggerated) anecdotes does not a case make. Fact is, one could consume just as much alcohol (if not more) and caffeine by simply gulping red bull vodka mixes in similar periods of time.

I can't say I've ever had a bad experience while using Four Loko. I don't think I ever considered having more than 24 ounces in one sitting, though. That could be an interesting experiment. I concur that it has a nasty energy drink aftertaste. That comes as no surprise, although, I bet the guy who drinks this stuff for the taste is worthy of an interview. You're obviously looking for a wild ride if you're thinking about drinking one. In my experience, it delivers.
I expect that you would poorly distinguish any of them if you poured all of their flavors in separate glasses. It all tastes like Loko.
I had a friend who swears that Sparks is not a gateway to heroin, rather, it's what people drink who have done heroin and are probably on the hunt for more. It's a poor man's escape drug; $1.99 for all of that fun.

Looks just like more, feel-good-do-nothing regulation that our nanny-state government seems to be a fan of.Exactly.
Yeah, what'll they do next, ban arsenic in animal feed? Meddlers.

Looks like the new director of Ag probably won’t be meddling in this situation..
As a staunch fiscal conservative, Zehringer signed onto the Ohio House Republican Caucus’ proposal, first introduced by gubernatorial candidate Jim Petro during the 2006 primary, to reduce the size of state government by eliminating waste and duplication… including the elimination of the very cabinet position he is now appointed to. This is a shining example of how elections do have consequences, and is the first appointment from the incoming Kasich administration that conservatives should be excited about as it’s a clear indication the new cabinet is ready to make severe and creative cuts in state government.

I wasn't trying to make a "case". I think anyone reading that site would know that the stories are embelished. But thanks.

Four Loko still available, at premium prices
Thursday, December 9, 2010
BY WESLEY LOWERY
The Columbus DispatchThe feds have banned shipments of the popular caffeine-alcohol cocktail Four Loko, but the 23.5-ounce cans aren't that hard to come by.
Many convenience stores still have the drinks on their shelves. And if you can't find it there, many online entrepreneurs are willing to sell their stashes - for a price.
