Addiction in America

Well, It certainly wasn't my intention to stifle conversation - I just found myself (and others) in a position of speaking with authority over an issue where really I have none.

Of course, we all can speak with authority about our own experiences, but as far as AA goes, I am more observer than participant and I think those two experiences are quite different.

I'm happy when people can speak with candor here, but on the flip side I want to make sure we respect people's privacy - while I like the closeness of our community, it still is a public forum and accessible to anyone who's willing to do a google search.
