So, Cancer research have had a wonderful new idea.
Give up drinking for January and send them the cash.

A nice idea for them, not a very good idea for the drinks industry though is it?
Can you imagine how many pubs would end up closing if we all joined in? How many redundancies would be forced onto breweries when lack of sales force them to reduce their staff?
I've no problem with charities trying to get extra cash, should it be at the expense of another industry though?
After all, charities are just another form of industry these days.
