Do you know who else was famous for being "arrogant"? Clarence Synder.

I would not have wanted him for a friend or for a neighbor because of his brash tone. But I would have been grateful to have him for a sponsor. He worked with over 5,500 alcoholics and claimed to have a 75% success rate. If that figure seems far fetched, keep in mind he was obsessed with keeping records.

Being around him might not have been a very pleasant experience. However, being around him would have been a very sobering experience.
