My commentary is not silly because when he uses inane statements like " Many
recovering alcoholics are not normal happy
people. Many are, but many aren't." to bolster his arguement, he is
either:


1. Not thinking about what he is actually writing.
or
2. Using what, to the casual reader, might at first glance appear to be a
meaningful profound statement to set the stage for, and will be reason
enough for, many to uncritically accept all the analysis that follows.

Scott is no dummy and usually chooses his words carefully, so draw your own
conclusions.

Scott's argument as I read it was that mental health professionals
have identified several personality and behavioral attributes which
many recovering alcoholics have in common. So let's look at the
behaviors and personality of a specific recovering alcoholic over
the last seven years and notice the similarities.

Now out of all that you picked one sentence, presented it totally
out of context and then jumped on it with both feet. My conclusion,
as I've already implied, is that your commentary is silly.
