Going back to Leanabeana...

My head is spinning a little from you changing tracks to "not liking endless drunkalogs," which wasn't your original question. I get that you may have a number of objections, but to this last point, the majority of meetings I've attended have not been centered around drunkalogs.

There are literature and beginner and meditation, step and big book meetings (probably more), and I don't believe I've ever heard a drunkalog at any of these. The only time I might hear something along those lines is at an anniversary where the tradition in my area is for the celebrant to tell their entire story. Granted, the chairs are pretty much all amateur speakers, so some folks might go into all of that but it's not the norm around here.

Have you gone to the same meeting on 10 occasions or 10 separate meetings in different locations? If it's the former, branching out might give you a broader perspective.

Just a thought
