I got a 14/15. I've spent some time studying some of our history and some of their questions really have the wrong answers. "Narcotics Anonymous" WAS actually originally a 13-step program pretty much sponsored by Salvation Army in the 40's-late 50's or later in New York and several other NE US cities and was primarily founded by Danny Carlson. Danny Carlson and Jimmy K were in contact some in the early days as far as our recorded history goes. In reality, that is nothing like the NA we know of today they had in NY. I recently acquired a copy of the minutes from the first meeting of NA as we know it today which mid august '53, pretty cool piece of history if anyone ever wants a copy.

also--"their hard won experience gave birth to the traditions and -OUR OWN-experience has shown.....-- The AA 12-traditions were not even conference approved until like 1955 if I'm not mistaken. There were no traditions (at least widely used and accepted) when the new school NA started in '53.

Thanks Service Junkie, I was looking through the history and saw my great great grand sponsor Bobby Rehmar in the history section (Chuck S 1989 interview) interesting.
