Thanks Oron! I believe this is truly the only way to quit anything. Just quit. I was thinking someone was going to tell me to join a group or something, but really, it is just a question.

 I asked it because I know someone who is still young (35), and he drinks at least 2 times a week (about 10-20 beers a sitting). He likes to party, and I don't like when he abuses alcohol. There was one time when i found a bottle of wild turkey in the garage, but he says he does not do that all the time. I worry about him, but i guess there is nothing i can do about it. he has to want to do it. it has to be him to quit... not me just complaining about it.
