The utter silence on this question seems to largely be validating much of what I've said. And that's really a sad thing to be associated with.
Denial is usually the province of the weak minded or the individual that wants to hide something. It manifests itself in many forms but this really is a simple question to lay to rest. If only someone had the courage to tackle it head on as opposed to pretending it's not there.
Sadly, a person in denial (such as an addict) won't see that he has a problem. Indeed, the more you try to show them, the more defensive and belligerent they'll become! These are not my observations, but medically proven fact. And as I stated in my OP, the BEHAVIOR I'm seeing is visually indistinguishable from that of people who are suffering from addiction.
Admission and diagnosis is only the first step. But treatment is impossible until you GET to and past that first step. It is something that is always out of focus! When you can't see the forest for the trees, it's easier to say it's someone else's fault. And human beings by nature always try to take the path of least resistance even when it's to their own detriment.
And this is what I suspect is the case here. Another dead giveaway is responding to a line of questioning like mine with insults, name calling, irrelevant character assassinations, etc while completely evading the topic. That's why I've said that when you have a corrupt person in charge and someone is closing in and getting too close to [revealing] the truth, that person has a tendency to "disappear".

Um, it's just stuff.
I like getting as good of a deal as anyone, but I don't enjoy something less simply because I paid full price for it. And I certainly don't buy something I have no use for, or couldn't easily re-sell, just because it's a "score".
Then again, I have a very powerful anti-hoarding instinct...

you need to re-write your ridiculously bloated first post using no more than one third that space.
Imagine how boring the internet would be if folks were as civil here as they are in person.
So are you saying that what I wrote is too long and uninteresting? Or are you telling me that the AA community lacks the intelligence and/or attention span to comprehend something more than two sentences in length?
It's a long post and it is easy to see early on that you have some sort of weird axe to grind. That combination will cause a lot of people to lose interest before finishing the whole thing.

Yeah, first question. Too long and uninteresting. I did plough through it, but I wouldn't recommend wasting the time. Are you the same person who used to own Tape Heads?
