NEWS IN BRIEF
There are no magic keys - Most addicts are dependent on
alcohol.
Writing in the Stuttgarter Nachrichten (http://www.stuttgarter-nachrichten.de)
Frank Schwaibold reports that most addicts are dependent on alcohol.
(Translators note: this could come as a surprise to those who
maintain that "There is no such thing as an illness called
alcoholism.)
Stuttgart - In Baden-Wuerttemberg there are around 420,000 addicts,
60% of whom are dependent on alcohol. In 1997, according to figures
published in the 1996/98 addiction report, 1644 deaths resulted from
the excessive consumption of alcohol. (Full report available at the
website given above.)
.............
The same paper (and others) carry reports of the 'cocaine scandal' reported
in 'The Times' (of London), (and in glaring headlines in the mainline UK
newspapers,) involving Prince Edward's close friend, Tom Parker-Bowles. It
is reported that 'The Queen is not amused'.
