Giving advice like this is, in my opinion, irresponsible. Encouraging an owner of any snake species to get "buzzed" before they handle is asking for trouble for that owner and for that snake. In the end that trouble can end up resulting in new and restrictive laws on all of us. Think Butters - one drunk owner, one large snake, one bad incident, one more community drafting even stupider snake keeping laws that every one of us has to live with.

This person was asking for responsible, common sense information to help him work with this snake. Let's try to provide that.
