Thinking about it, I really would not like to meet a dragon with the drinking habits of the average Tang poet, actually. Plus I am pretty sure I recall that Li Bai was a bit mad already (i.e., before he was AU'd into a dragon). Interesting mental picture there. Does this mean that Meng Haoran and/or Du Fu, etc., were also dragons? Or aviators? Whee!
