My request has been get a service position and care enough about AA to listen to the reports. And if you're going to say, I'm not even convinced I should send money anymore. I want my people to send it locally where I'm trying to encourage them to remember that we have homeless and incarcerated people and people that with no teeth and bad breath and that have body odor, that we need to be talking to those people, not shoving literature at them.
