    What is the context of this message? What did the user input to get this?

    Question 8b is about substance abuse. It’s about how often you drink alchohol. You had to select ranges of consumption for beer, wine, and hard liquor. This user drinks wine (but not to excess), but not the others, so she’d left it blank.

    Once I saw an online form asking the users if they could read…. I was something like:
    Do you know how to read and write?
    Yes / No

    I can’t find the link, but in this case pure tequila is required ;)
