Okay, so, in the same vein then: "Crack research confirms long-term crack smoking prevention almost impossible". Sounds kinda off, no? It's a mental thing, and by mental, I don't mean "It's all in your head", I mean "It's (literally) all in your head".
- CJefferson 12y agoLots of research has demonstrated that most crack addicts (and alcohol addicts, and nicotine addicts) who try to quit relapse. I thought that was an accepted part of science. Why do you think it sounds kinda off?
- nemasu 12y agoIt's off because something that is impossible denotes some sort of 'law of nature' that cannot be avoided, where as in reality it's more brain/willpower related.
- aidenn0 12y agoyes "impossible" denotes some sort of 'law of nature' that cannot be avoided, and "almost impossible" doesn't.
