My experience leads me to believe, they are of little to no use for the real deal alcoholic.

Having said that, I've never been, but like I said ... I would have heard a 100 stories of people who ended up in AA, who share from the floor, that it never worked for them.

Some of them did 3,4, 5 rehabs.
I could say I've read 10, 000 posts... maybe 100 thou LOL....but when you get down to it that would not really be any more universal that your 100 AA members...we'd both be simply puffing ourselves up

I do appreciate your point, and your experience - my experience is that not everyone takes the same path to recovery, and my point is not everyone here is an AA defined alcoholic, whalebelow

I think we should get back to addressing Dom now
