Does the natural conclusion of this thread mean that the 'recovering
zuikoholic' can never even participate in 'social' zuiko imbibing??? One
zuik, and your back on a steady diet, huh...

Indeed Hans. Nice work, Chris! Now that you have become an independent
entrepreneur with a bit of extra time on your hands, you might consider
donating some time to counseling in a Zuikoholism clinic. But...NOT until
you conquer that DENIAL. 'fess up, man, and forget this *Zuikohobbiest*
nonsense! You can't be helped until you admit you have a problem. In the
meantime, don't offer other Zuikoholics a rationale for similiar denial.
*Loved your site* and appreciated the accompanying admission/confession.
Reading the warning signs I realize that (*gasp*) I am still in the very
throes
of Zuiko addiction.
Perhaps aversion therapy might work for me. For the sake of scientific
inquiry,
why don't you send me all your OM/Zuiko stuff and see if the extra equipment
will cause me to overindulge my OM/Zuiko habit, sate my desire, assault
my senses and create such revulsion at the thought of more purchases that
I won't want to buy another thing. Wouldn't it be grand if I could be
satisfied
with what I have and what you send?
If it works, we could see if a couple of other list members might want to
contribute more Oly?Zuiko stuff to you to possibly put your Zuikoholism
into remission. If that works, Tom S. could probably take care of half a
dozen folks. Then Doris F. I'm sure others will come to mind. Hmmm. I
might be on to something here.
