Re: I wouldn't normally get into one of these discussions but I think you have bought hook line and sinker the spin created by the professional community that makes a very good living treating peoples "genetic predisposition" to addictions of every imaginable kind. The basic idea is to tell people they have no personal responsibility for their behavior and therefore they need to pay the professional huge sums of money for "treatment". A very good living is made by the medical professionals, the insurance companies pay the bill and charge the employers (or government) huge sums of money and people go on scarffing down the cheeseburgers, smoking their cigarettes, drinking their alcohol, doing their dope or whatever other compulsive behavior is in vogue this week and rest assured, it's not their fault.... they're genetically predisposed..... The Doctors and therapists drive Mercedes, the insurance companies make billions, the people know it's not their fault and a good time is had by all... EP, Amazing, I agree with you 100%. Back on topic, I see we turned positive. Is this yet another dead cat bounce? I guess we'll see in a few hours... chic
