The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
I just took a look at the activeboard.com's (who we purchase our message board from each month) stats information on their own site and what I found out is that they have 149,285 forums or message boards that are used for a variety of endeavors. And out of that hugh figure, this Al-Anon board is their sixth most actively used board. **************** Reviewing the same stat page, I also discovered that this board ranks as their second largest board with the most members. Keep in mind that this is out of 149, 285 other message boards they provide to other types of users. ***************** Sure shows we aren't a weak bunch here if its true that strength comes in numbers

That's impressive John. It also show the need doesn't it. It also show what you have done over the years. This and more. Mahalo Nui (thanks alot) you are being blessed.
Just goes to show ya what an amazing man we have as a founder, eh? Thanks from the bottom of my heart John (and Rose) and all the other hard working people we have working on this board! Love, TLC
On the one hand, that is an amazing stat! We are strong in our togetherness and fellowship.
On the other hand, it is truly indicative of the epidemic proportions of affected people in our country. Granted, we have a few other countries represented, but mostly we are Americans. Epidemic. Alcoholism. A documentary suggested that "booze" was to be the 3rd scourge of mankind, after Opium and Cocaine. I find much truth in that.
yours in recovery, cj
