#1 If it's like most tests of its kind there is no way to answer that clears you of alcohol dependency.
Its like getting a DUI and going to the 'evaluation' session, there is no way you are going to not get labeled an alcoholic if you have more than 3 drinks a week.
Tell them you drink 5 or 6 drinks a night sometimes and watch them begin to salivate.

#4 bigjim, see, the problem is you admit to drinking at night.

See, I only admit to drinking during daylight hours. It's much safer, since I am less likely to trip over the bottles and cans on my way to the bathroom than I am after 8 pm.

Safety first, baby!! ;)

#9 true story

in 1985 i was refereed by court for evaluation for drug and alcohol dependency. testing to be done at a local treatment facility. we sat down and they asked about 15-20 questions. at the end, the lady told me she was going to advise the court that it was her professional opinion that i receive treatment at her facility. i answered " well Duh... like there was any way you would have possibly not suggested i come and be forced to pay you the big bucks for your 'treatment'"

she and i argued for a few minutes, and eventually just to prove me wrong, she advised the court that no treatment was required.
