I think the caution is appropriate -- benzos alone are very hard to OD with, but their interaction with alcohol is unpredictable and potentially dangerous.
However, I still drink (moderately) and have never noticed any interaction whatsoever between alcohol and Klonopin or Xanax. I should add that I never take the two at the same time (i.e, I take K in the AM, and any drink I have is 10-12 hrs later), am on low doses of benzos, and tried this very carefully at first. There really is a potential danger, and it's individual-specific like everything else, so caution is advised.
