              RECOVERY ECHOMAIL CONFERENCE - FidoNet
RECOVERY is an "open forum" type conversational conference for
the discussion of topics related to addictions and recovery from
them; also, announcements of RECOVERY related gatherings
(conferences, workshops, speaker meetings, etc.) are in order.
[The above paragraph does not really LIMIT the topics SINCE we ALL
drank or used (or whatever word you choose) over anything and every-
thing at one time or another.]
 
RECOVERY is for those involved in the various "12 Step" recovery
programs, as well as for those WHO ARE not involved in a recovery
program but WHO HAVE a desire to deal with recovery from THEIR
additive BEHAVIOR AND ARE INTERESTED IN CONVERSING WITH THOSE WHO
ARE INVOLVED IN 12 STEP PROGRAMS.  This includes AA, NA, Al-Anon,
OA, EA, SLAA and many other such 12-step-BASED groups.
-- Rules:
Darned few!  Promotion of "commercial ventures" such as treatment 
facilities or clinics is not in order.  General rules of social
conduct are always in order.  Repeated "abusive/annoying" messages   *
may draw comment from the moderator or be brought to the attention   *
of the Moderator by other conference participants.                   *
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NOTE:  As RECOVERY is not a part of or affiliated with _ANY_
recovery program, attempting to impose traditions, membership
requirements, etc. of any specific program is out of order.
