One guy wrote me:
I have been going to the SLAA on line group for a year and have stayed sober that way. I have a goyisha sponsor who uses the AA big book and knows the program very well. According to your own progressive Tool format in the GYE Handbook (which makes a lot of sense), there are probably others like me in the community that don't need to take the risk of voice recognition. We are working the steps, getting sponsors and accountability partners on line; we have three meetings a day if we need it, and we can go on-line anytime between meetings for support or just to chat.
It's easy. You can do it right now. I just go to www.slaaonline.org. Then in the left column ("contents") I scroll down to the "Main Room" and click Canada Java (because I just have Java, but everyone says that the other one is faster and has color options -mIRC). Then you type in your screen name, say "Guard", and your email address, and when they don't recognize your name you'll be taken into a private room and they'll tell you that for the protection of our members they need to know if you are either a sex or a love addict? If you say that you are, then they'll let you into the meeting. The meetings are at 12pm, 4 (or 4:30pm) and 10 (or 10:30 pm Chassidisha) EST. At night we sometimes have 40 people in the room. This is a great form of group support and learning the 12-Steps!
