Oh horror of horrors! You mean I can't blame my bad behavior (whatever
it might be) on the fact that I have an alcoholic personality? Oh dear,
oh dear oh dear. Next thing you'll be saying there isn't such a thing
as an addictive personality either. Such revisionist thinking has got
to stop! (besides, who's going to pay for all those treatment
professionals to go back to school and unlearn all that?)
