Also, I think I have separated out my D&D experiences from reality enough that I can safely say that my playing a "good" character frequently hasn't made me a better person, and that as DM running many, many "evil" characters hasn't made me evil. I can see the value in someone thinking, "Hey, I'm not a drug adict, there's probably a good reason I'm not, maybe I'll play one in a fantasy game" and then getting to experience (vicariously) what it's like and why that would totally suck.

So you say roleplaying interaction has no affect on people.
A point I have raised more than once that hasn't been answered is that if it is not effective, why do trainers all over the country use roleplaying to learn and reinforce behavior?
