"Beverages are Passable, Carryable MOs."

I'm inclined to disagree with this, since it's not necessary to be on the grid to purchase or receive beverages. You can get then on New Nyears Day, and you can simply purchase them.
If it's desirable to contain them on the grid, it'll take more work than 
this.
Being a 'Grid object', or carrable, or passable, or an MO has nothing to
with being in Limbo. You can purchase Gnomes in Limbo, and they're both carryable.
As a side note to this, I just discovered that Beer Cans are not grid 
objects in any way.  They are only purchaseable in Limbo, and can only be 
thrown from Limbo to the Grid or from the Grid to Limbo.  Despite this, 
they are treated as grid objects up and down the ruleset.
Grid objects can exist just fine in Limbo.  Witness all the players, and 
gremlins too.
So whether or not you're in Limbo has nothing to do with purchaseability 
of grid objects.  As far as I can tell, anyway.
That wasn't my point.  My point is that if it's a grid object it can be 
destroyed in an apocalypse or a win, and I didn't think things purchased 
outside the grid should have that happen to them.  I didn't mean 
purchasable in Limbo; I meant purchasable if the grid was to get nuked 
tomorrow.
Ah.  Well, in this case, if you are wanting to seperate the Grid and the 
rest of the game, you need to decide which side beverages are on.  Some 
people may want them on the Grid side.  I think that having the entire grid 
and the rest of the ruleset as completly seperate won't work out too well, 
as there's too much intermixing.
