I am finding it hard not to see this thread as a provocation after the one that got locked yesterday, which I’ve not had chance to review yet as I’ve just this moment got in from work, but which from the quick glance I was able to take last night included a number of people, including the OP of this thread, behaving in a way that wasn’t in the spirit of the forum rules here. Whether the behaviour was also against the letter, and therefore will attract warnings or suspensions, is something I will need to take stock of later.

I will leave this thread open for now, but please be aware that I will have very low tolerance for poor etiquette in this thread, under which umbrella I include repeating views already rehearsed at length elsewhere. I am already going to have to spend more of my evening than I’d like combing through AA-related discussions from yesterday and confess I’m feeling a bit grumpy about that laezeldisapprove

Fair warning that if I see anything like yesterday’s behaviour from folk on any side of this debate, then this thread will get locked pretty quickly and people will find themselves using up some of their three strikes! Please, if you really think you have something new to say on this topic at all, keep it friendly and constructive.
