i've heard that it is humanly impossible to drink a gallon of milk in one hour, 
but i'm wondering why that is?  i'm wondering to the reason why the body rejects 
the milk?  is there someway to buffer the effect it will have on the digestive 
system, so that maybe a person would be able to drink a whole gallon without 
vomiting or becoming ill???  any help would be great!
