The 90 day concept is attributed by at least one historian (if I recall
correctly, http://www.historyofaa.com/ ) to power trippers subsequent to
Bill Wilson during emergence of the "treatment industry" of which our Rosie

The Big Book "basic text" has not been bastardised, yet. Scattered amongst
it's gems is the same bullshit from the first edition, though it took me a
lot longer than 90 days to discover that.

"The same mindless jerks that sit at the keyboard all day and rant and rave

Believing I hold no expectations of anything other than speculation in non
technical newsgroups, I do learn a lot about myself here. Have you tried
approaching from that perspective?

Guess if you have read this far, you may even have started!
