The Big Book says that Bill sat drinking in his kitchen. While thinking about his concealed gin, Bills musing was interrupted by Ebby's telephone call. Although it doesn’t say they met that afternoon it would appear they did.
You did however raise an eyebrow I normally won’t talk to someone who has been drinking. After reading your post if I get calls from someone who is drinking I think I'll listen to a few. As the book says a spirit of intolerance might repel alcoholics whose lives could have been saved. After reading this I do believe telling someone not to call me when drunk is just showing intolerance or hatred of drinking as an institution.
I still have to take into consideration that if someone won’t work with me then I need to seek someone else out remembering that if I leave that person alone he might become convinced he cannot recover on his own.
Thank-you sugErspun
