Recording of Bill W - talks about young people

reminds you of young folks, the other day I looked at the office door and I said, holy smokes what’s that one doing in here. And there was a gay little doll with a mini skirt about so long, (Laughter) and I guess she had love beads on and she came pirouetting down the hall, I said gee what’s this, (Laughter) oh somebody said she’s from young people’s group out in LA. Boy, I said, get her in here quick. (Laughter) I really didn’t know what to expect. I had been trying so hard to understand the youth, you know, maybe here would be a great chance. And so, in she came and she sat herself down and this young lady was sure full of joy. She said, “You know Bill that young people’s group is just going great guns, she said I am the oldest member and I am 23.” (Laughter) And then she handed me out a line of AA well, it could make you cry for joy, it could make you know that if the young generation is like that doll and Anne, the future of AA is perfectly safe.
