Yep!
It's that time of year …. again! It's a good job someone emails us
to jog our memories ..... it's not exactly the highpoint of our
calendar featuring as it generally does just another catalogue of
statements expounding the bleeding obvious ….
So
we'll kick of with “Committee 1 Q1 Article Disability and Our
Primary Purpose” (the latter phrase unfortunately having been
appropriated by the Dallas Primary Purpose gang et al who've attempted to turn the Big Book
into some kind of AA 'bible').
By
and large mostly common sense (thereby falling into the above
category) although the emphasis seems primarily directed towards the
hearing impaired (or is it challenged?). Clearly it always helpful
for someone who's either deaf or going deaf to be able to see the
person who's doing the talking. Those meetings (fortunately rare)
which seem to prefer to conduct their proceedings under cover of a
perpetual dusk (ie. candle light - mostly run by tree huggers and
frustrated Liberal Democrats) might like to bear that in mind. But
it's not all doom and GLOOM (geddit!). Sometimes – if not
frequently - not being able to hear what's said in a meeting can be a
positive blessing. Just imagine not having to endure some Big Book nutter holding forth (usually inaccurately) on that tome or
even worse yet another cult sponsorship freak banging on incessantly
about how bloody wonderful their current guru is, and how they do
EVERYTHING their sponsor tells them! Every cloud indeed has a silver
…..
