A friend, one year sober, sent me this. Well worth the 2 and a half minutes of your time.

There is a huge volume of audio on Youtbe, from AA speakers.

But it follows traditions, of just using first name, last initial and no video for anonymity purposes.

This is from  "Sandy B," from Palm Springs in 1972. He was sober since 1964, then. A US Marine Corps pilot.

Still living, still speaking in AA, still sober and in 2014 it will be his 50th sober anniversary.
