This is exactly why I asked my friend to do more research. "Chi-Fi" (love that term) is what I wanted him to be sure he really wanted--heck I havent heard it either but.....there are several other choices to consider----reading a few positive reviews will steer you in the WRONG direction sometimes. He has joined AA to gather your opinions. I trust and value the input from you guys--you sure helped me over the last year and I thank you all. Thanks again for helping him.
