AWOL machine -- its name stands for 'alcohol without liquid'

the same river twice: "from Wired furthermore
Wired News: 'A device designed to get modern party people drunk faster than the old-fashioned method has been banned in New South Wales. Rather than simply swigging booze, users of the AWOL machine -- its name stands for 'alcohol without liquid' -- breathe in alcoholic vapor produced by mixing gin or other spirits with pure oxygen. 'AWOL was billed as the 'ultimate party toy' that could get users drunk 10 times faster,' said an official of the Australian state. 'This sends an irresponsible message about alcohol consumption.' A website hawking the AWOL machine likens the boxy booze blaster to a hookah, and calls it a 'dieter's dream,' saying the device puts the kibosh on both calories and hangovers.
