Having claustrohphobia is at one extreme on da alcohol-and-sociability scale, and then at da other end there are those individuals who "don't like drinking alone". But maybe da two "total opposite" types aren't truly incompatible --- how 'bout if you form a group of folks out on da Great Plains, but with each person standing a number of yards apart and "having a beer about it" (acknowledgements to Kevin Brown --- i.e., "Junkyard Digs") while quietly thinking his own thoughts? Da theory there is dat nobody is truly alone, but at da same time, none of da participants is even-remotely "getting' up in da face" of anyone else --- good compromise, perhaps?
