Gmail adds "mail goggles" to deter drunken e-mailing

Google has added a new feature to their gmail application, a setting that users can customize and that helps deter sending e-mails when under the influence. The "mail goggles" feature requires the user to answer some simple math questions before allowing him or her to send a message. The idea is that if the user's faculties are sufficient to permit answering math questions, the user is probably sober enough to know what he or she is doing.
