Dry January is mathematically incoherent. If you do it, and then drink every other day of the year, as I do, you will have reduced your number of drinking days by 31. But if you go one night a week without drinking, you will knock off 52 days. Two nights a week and you're at 104. Do dry Wednesdays.
