here is what I am talking about man

from the AA Approved Pamphlet,The AA Group,page37
sub titled-what AA does not do
Tradition 10
# 13.provide letters of reference to parole boards,attorneys,court officials,schools,businesses,social agencies,or any other organization or institution.

from A.A.C.O.A.
the last 2 lines at bottom of page 109 says a lot.

The more AA sticks to it`s primary purpose (trad 5), the greater will be its helpful influence everywhere.


man,I have wrote quite a few letters some yrs ago-the facts are they did not do any good.
I was dismembering the protective mantle the traditions wove around AA,I just did not know it at the time because of my inexperience in studying the literature AA provides and my know it all attitude.I`m sharing because of my failures.
Today,I think more of AA than what others here think of me and that s ok,I`ll be the bad guy,if necessary, for sticking up for AA
