*> following up a message from Jane Kelley to Matrika, About - Re: REPLY TO 
OPEN LETTER <*
Hello Matrika,
 JK> CAn't blame you there. I advise folks to get a support group as
 JK> well as a sponsor as they tend to be human, need vacations, etc.
Hope you don't mind my butting in.  But I was told once in the
beginning, that every time I went someplace new for a meeting.  That I
should try and find at least one person I liked talking to, and try to
get their phone number.  If you go to meetings often, if doesn't take
long to get quite a few numbers of people you _like_ talking to.  I'm
not sure if this is what Jane means, but its an idea.
 JK> Build up a small support group and then worry about finding a new
 JK> sponsor. Sometimes this takes care of itself.
Sorry if you already know this.  But a lot of home groups have temp
sponsors who will also help you find a permanent one.

Hello Martin,
 TR> Is it just me or is traffic on this echo really slowing down?
 MW> It has slowed down here too.
 MW> Come on guys. Don't you all speak at once now!
Ok, I'm speaking.  I just started carrying this echo on the BBS, and
plan on printing up some flyers to leave at meetings.  One thing I'd
like to mention is that this echo is scheduled for deletion.  See below,
if any of you have netmail at your friendly BBS, I suggest netmailing
Rich Ward.  If, you want to keep this echo?
