I doubt that anyone who has made it known here that they're working as
a professional in the recovery field and maybe also anyone who
regularly posts extracts from research papers, would always want their
comments/remarks to be considered only a personal opinion. Maybe,
others may also not want this. Isn't the true value of comments
/remarks always determined by each person who reads/hears them ?

I think that may be a fact.

Nope. Usenet values are all assigned by Lord Dimwit Flathead the
Excessive.

Anyway, I was merely grousing about the futility of bickering about
uncertainty. On the other hand, what else is there to bicker about?

i have put a few years in working in the recovering field, and YES,
everything i say, is still just my opinion.
nothing more and nothing less.........................
imo, those who are always looking for something to bicker about are
a pitiful lot.
YMMV,

Ironic, watching the malcontents version of discussion group
netiquette. Bickering, even shouting, .......... about bickering.
