.where xxxchurch feels like recovery in a night club, gye sometimes feels like recovery in a beis medrash...
I hear your point, but trust me - you're much safer in a Bais Medrash


Good point. That is actually why I don't like xxxchurch. But I got to give it to them, they are really good at talking to "real people" out there.

Personally I try to stay away from that "real world" though. I prefer a Bais Medrash feeling

Has anyone, other than myself, noticed that the number of guests visiting the site have doubled since the national coverage on NPR?  O0 O0 O0

Makes sense! We even had at least 2 extra callers on the afternoon 12 step call. I wonder if there were others on the other calls. Now - how do we get that kind of coverage in the Frum communities which this site/service is better suited for?

Maybe GYE can do something similar to a National P**n Sunday? Can GYE get all Rabbonim to devote their Drashos on a particular Shabbos to discussion of internet, Shemiras Einayim, and slip in mention of GYE - Maybe one with a relevant theme like "Lo Sinaf", "Er V'Onan", "Kedoshim Tihiyu."

Guard - how does that sound? Lets do it!
