Study indicates Binge Drinking Leaves a Lasting Physiological Impact

Citing a study by University of Santiago de Compostela, Galicia, Spain, the LA Times reported 08/11/09 that young adults who indulge in "Binge" drinking have diminished memory abilities in comparison to those who do not. The subjects of the study were not showing alcoholic tendencies other than occasionally overdoing it but they still had difficulty performing in cognitive tests while sober. This tells me that alcohol has a lingering effect on your brain well after you get sober.
