That's right. The original motivation is quite different. They are two quite different classes of addicts. Glad that you agree with me.

I don't agree with you. Not even slightly.

I, an addict, any many other hundreds of thousands like me who attend Narcotics Anonymous see no differnce in fellow addicts despite their orignal, now meaningless motivations.

In fact, we believe that so strongly, we don't even want to know what drugs you used, how, how much or how often. You are an addict; so are we. That's all we need to know.

It does not help Rush or others suffereing from drug addictions to make this distinction. It's this kind of rationalization that likely extended Rush's addiction agony.
