I know exactly what kind of drinker I am. I'm a drunk. Alcoholics go to  
meetings. I go sailing.

Dear  Rummy,
Our  Drinker's Check-up  <http://www.drinkerscheckup.com>   is for real. 
It's
an  empirically supported program for heavy drinkers who wonder about  their
drinking and want objective, non-judgmental feedback about it. We  developed
it with funding from NIH/NIAAA and evaluated its effectiveness in  a
randomized clinical trial with a 12 month follow-up. The outcomes of  that
study indicated that heavy drinkers who went through the Check-up  reduced
their drinking by 45-55% out to 12 months and had a 50% reduction  in
alcohol-related problems. 

In the 12 years it's been online, the  app has screened over 105,000 people
and over 20,000 have registered and  used  it.
