Windysan - too bad that there's dope at the meetings by you. Not a good thing.
Nolonger - I know what you mean by people that love their own voice, I hate that. By "doctrinarie" I meant very tightly focused on the steps and the One to whom the steps lead. That doesn't work for me. I like meetings that share experience, strength and hope but that are not entirely focused on the steps and God. I also like a chair that will keep people from speaking too long.
