    Hmm, interesting that ethanol has a similar effect in insects to begin with, given that their circulatory system is quite different.

    I guess, at the end of the day, their circulatory system does still do the same job of transporting nutrients to cells, so it makes sense that it would also transport alcohol to nerve cells.
