So, now the health fascists are questioning AA and its methods? They claim that more alcoholics drink coffee and smoke and that smoking is more detrimental to health. You NAZI freaks have never lived with an alcoholic, have you? I have and I can say that most family members of an alcoholic would do anything to get that person off alcohol, EVEN if it involved other health risks to the recovering alcoholic. Those of us who have had the unfortunate experience of dealing with drunks on a daily basis are eternally grateful to anything that makes them stop drinking.

Are the zealots now going to prevent alcoholics from seeking help over smoking? AA is a wonderful organization that helped many people for many years. Many alcoholics eventually quit smokming after they quit drinking, but trying to both at once is asking too much. As large as AA is, I'm sure that they have non smoking meeting places in areas where they are desired by the AA members. This is one areas where outsiders have absolutly no business interfering.

It's hard to believe that a seeminly prestigious medical publication would resort to "name calling" like kids in a playground.
