Well, I've tried sobriety 100's of times and yes, I'm sure it could serve as an easy excuse to continue drinking (just as anything else can) but my point was that it was just kind of frustrating to think that I only had a 10% chance to suceed within the 10 year time frame mentioned. It just kind of lowers my morale. As I indicated earlier, I don't remember where I read that but I think the important thing here is that I remained SOBER on Thanksgiving day

Where did you read that, anyway?
