Thanks, Dan. There were a couple aspects of that article which I found particularly interesting. The first is the fact that the author got sober in AA but stayed sober on his own. Not something I particularly want to try, but interesting none-the-less. The second, and much more intriguing thing for me was the author's descriptions of the various "faces" of AA. So many people believe AA to be a set, stagnant program where every meeting and every member are carbon copies of the next. This is simply and obviously not the case.

Thanks again!!
