		<description><![CDATA[Image via Wikipedia It is an interesting fact about alcoholics that we do not particularly care for being told what to do. Someone tells us we &#8220;have to do&#8221; something and we are automatically, viscerally turned against the proposed thing. Someone says that the &#8220;best way&#8221; to do something is x, and we immediately access <a href='http://learnaboutrehab.com/nothing/interesting-fact-about-alcoholics/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Simple tests for complex problems do not work. The disease of alcoholism is recognized and defined by Alcoholics Anyonymous as (among other things) &#8220;cunning, baffling, and powerful.&#8221; I believe this to be very accurate. Regrettably, alcoholism is not a disease that can be easily &#8220;tested for&#8221; or proven or dis-proven.
