addiction

Dear Answer Person,
I recently spoke to a professor who discovered your sampler online. She had so much fun with it that she could not stop and do her work. Now she is going to give her students the URL as a reward at the end of class. Do you think she has a problem that needs professional attention?

ANSWER PERSON RESPONDS: Dear Perplexed in Perkins:

She apparently did stop to do her work. She made it to class. She recognized that her students deserved a reward. The other good news is that she will get through the sampler, additions will appear at a moderate pace, and she can resume her normal work patterns — in a more enlightened and informed state.
