Indeed that is correct! and I don't drink 95% as a joke, I drink it because otherwise it takes a stupid liter of something else to get the desired affect - which is bad for you! That gets expensive, and everclear is only 16-20 bucks.

 

I agree with the fact that the other chemicals are a huge cause for the hangover, but I've drank some vodka and some Rum in the last 6 months too without feeling sick, but then again, body chemistry and genes can probably have an effect on that too...

So far I haven't read an explanation that is explaining it all... (Although a lot of valuable contributions have been made).
