It takes energy to reply and I have no extra time to play around and keep

checking back when the poster diappears.

I am curious about this one too...but not everyone is browsing the forums daily. According to the date on the original post, there was only a little over a day between that and yours. Perhaps the poster has not "disappeared" but has just been busy with other things. You yourself mentioned you have no extra time...life gets busy. Let's offer the benefit of the doubt....

Hmmmmn...once you've opened a can of worms, it's awfully hard to get those lil' suckers back in there!

The statistics that are out says that AA has fallen drastically in the last 6 years. That doesn't mean that it doesn't work. I know that I do very little AA but I do a lot of NA which is based off of AA and for that NA and other 12 Step Groups are truly grateful.

I, too, would be interested in the source of these statistics. Perhaps it isn't so much that AA membership has declined but that NA membership has increased over the past several years. Makes sense to me!
