Perpetuates a myth that heavy drinkers are necessarily alcoholics. I used to regularly drink about ten pints of beer a day but never became dependent on it. Most of a group I drank with would have an alcohol-free month to give their liver a rest; mind you, they chose February as it was the shortest month. ;-)
Whereas some – most? – drinkers are not affected by addictive effects of alcohol, I reckon anyone can become addicted to nicotine as it is more addictive than cocaine. If tobacco had only been discovered today, it would have been classified as a class-A drug in the UK.
