1.) “13 Good Lowering Drinking Age to 18 Statistics.” HRFnd, 16 Feb. 2015, healthresearchfunding.org/13-good-lowering-drinking-age-18-statistics/. This website has several statistics to go along with the pros and cons of lowering the drinking age, some of these statistics supported what was said in the article so it provided good evidence.
2.) Chiappetta, Annie. “Should Drinking Age Be 18?” ABC News, ABC News Network, 14 Apr. 2005, abcnews.go.com/US/story?id=667917&page=1. In the article the writer mentions certain peoples opinions on lowering the drinking age, the website that I have cited has an elaborate interview with many people on how they feel about lowering the drinking age, and this website can be used to fight the pros and cons of the drinking age.

Don't misunderstand me. The brain is of course affected by alcohol.
As long as one is to use a superlative, however, the organ most affected by alcohol is in fact the liver. Animals, including humans, evolved livers specifically to deal with exogenous (meaning, external in origin) poisons, including alcohol among many others. (The list also include most other drugs of abuse, actually.) Anyway, since it primarily deals with poisons and that's what it evolved for, the liver takes the brunt of alcohol (or many other poisons). All bodily organs are affected, but the liver takes the full force of the effects. The Mysterious El Willstro (talk) 09:00, 19 July 2018 (UTC)
I've removed the following content from the lead as it has little bearing on this topic. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:53, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
"A survey of Australian university students demonstrated that they and other students witnessed blackouts during parties with alcohol consumption and around 75% of students stated that they left these students to sleep off the effects. Australian programs responded to this by training students in how to avoid dangerous encounters when in situations of alcohol consumption. [1]"
