Alcoholism, I vote for intervention

I vote for sending Bono letters telling him that we would support him
even if he admitted that he was an alcoholic and urging him to seek
help. It may help if you are able to remind him of an event you
remember when he was either drunk or high.

I do not think anyone close to him has been able to help him because
this problem has been extremely visible for at least 10 years. If those
close to him could handle it, he would be in rehab by now.

I guess the question is whether we would still be fans if we found out
that he had made mistakes in his life and was not able to live up to his
image. If we can accept him as human, he may be able to be honest
about his problems.

Sorry if you don't want to hear about this, but if everyone did not
believe there was truth in it we would not be talking about it. Bono is
a person in trouble - how do we respond?
