I think everyone mainly agrees the soft alcholism refers to the two to four cocktails a night we consume every night as aging attorneys, as opposed to the raging drunks who get to the bar at 11am everyday.

Sebby took it from a Pink Floyd song though - "lost in a haze of alcohol soft middle age". We are the only two people in the world who appreciate that album*, so I know it to be true.
Thanks for the background though. I like to be up on my bastardizations.
*actually, if I recall correctly, Atticus also appreciates it, but that is not hepful to my thesis here.
