Don't that just beat all??? ... ... ... and yes, I've had a few sponsees that needed to be wear'n such a device ... course if a person doesn't sincerely want AA and to stop drink'n, I guess the point would be mute ... ... ... why bother and what would you do if they did decide to drink, fire them??? ... ... ... LOL


Thanks for the info Pickle ... ... ...

I can see it now......right after the Serenity Prayer the Chair says...."there is coffee and doughnuts as well as free literature on the table...oh, and don't forget to put on a "patch" so we can see if you are staying sober."

I can see how this may be useful for law enforcement, like in cases where someone's parole requires that they not drink alcohol, but an AA sponsor keeping tabs on a sponsee? There's a whole separate 12 step program for that kind of thinking...
