Obviously 21 year olds won't experience blackouts, drunken injuries or diminished work performance. They're 21 after all. Damn those pesky students having fun with their lives!

I chose that article because its on a government website, and pretty much every effect of caffeinating an alcoholic beverage can be acheived by an alcoholic beverage alone. In other words, the caffeine isn't doing very much. Except providing a scapegoat for irresponsible parents.
In every article people are blaming the makers of four loko for making underage kids doing stupid things. The problem is little kids getting their hands on alcohol, today its four loko, after they change it they'll go back to other malt liquors, or whatever the stupid parent of the day is willing to supply.
