63. You are correct. I didn't know this.

From the NYTimes: "Senator Biden does not drink at all, and he is frank about the reason. “There are enough alcoholics in my family,” he said last month as he sipped cranberry juice on a train ride from Washington to Wilmington."

So I'll have a beer with Joe, and he can have a cranberry juice with me. I'm still buying, and not just because Joe would be a cheap date!
