i misunderstood the tense.
i understood it to be in the present and it floored me momentarily.

'Charlie and Joe's: Big Book Study Meeting'..

Thanks for confirming what I already understood from listening to and reading the transcript of Charlie Parmley and Joe McQuany's,'Charlie Joe's: Big Book Study Meeting,'....

Did they al,so mention that because of this dysfunction, acetone is produced, and it's that which is responsible, via the brain, for producing the cravings to drink alcohol ?

People who already have...

People who already have or purchase a copy of the transcript of 'Charlie & Joe's Big Book Study Meeting', will find a full, detailed and comprehensive, complete with diagrams of the the information provided in this thread for further reading on the subject...or you can just listen to a recording of them delivering it...a treat not to be missed, highly recommended!

I hope we have more research. Science has all the answers. I'm not the one to judge but seems like people are anxious to sell some big books

As Epictetus said...

As alcoholism is often referred to as 'A Disease of Perception', I'm always reminded of these two sayings..

'Man is not disturbed by things, but his view of things,' - Epictetus

'First came science, then came God,' - Albert Einstein

Something or those who know all the answers but none of the questions to think about...
