i have ran into people that do a great deal of service work for the communities they live in-one that does missionary work, one that started working for for a local charity, one that volunteers at the local animal shelter- many different ways of being of maximum service to the people around them.

some people stop doing whats working for them. but not ALL people do. just because people dont show up at meetings doesnt mean they arent doing well.
ive been to 4 meetings in the last year.
crucify me!!!!!

Yes, some members and these are the members I refer. Members who had time and then rerun to the rooms of AA to share about what happened. Why they picked up a drink.
