What difficult
tasks people take on in the name of science!
On January
26, 1970 WDRC personality Dick McDonough became an
on-air human guinea pig to illustrate the dangers of drinking
and driving. Over the course of his afternoon show, Dick consumed
seven drinks under the watchful eyes of newsman Pat Sheehan,
a doctor and a Connecticut state trooper.
He completed
various tests to demonstrate how the booze was affecting his
physical responses.
