This from someone who claims that alcoholics are geneticly predisposed
to alcoholism >;->  Sheesh, next you will claim nicotine is a "gateway
drug". When the most addictive drug known to man (nicotine) doesn't
create "instant junkies" you can't argue that a less addictive drug
will. Sorry, but there is no difference between your "noble alcoholic"
and a "dirty junkie" - both take their drug-of-choice for the same
reasons - either they are dependant on the high to "feel normal" or they
are addicted & "need" the drug to avoid withdrawal
