Anonymity is no reason not to publish things like anonymous surveys. You know those comment cards at restaurants? Even something like that would be better than nothing.

You notice AA doesn't bother trying to prove the program works. If it's such a great program why aren't they trumpeting how successful it is?

I realize you have bought into the dogma but AA doesn't stand up to any skepticism.

"This program works"

"show me please how well it works?"

"Nevermind that. It just works."

There are a ton of things in the world that operate with that mindset. They are called scams/snake oil/religion.

"Buy my moose diarrhea, it is an amazing hair tonic! Also it will make you young again."

"Looks like diarrhea to me."

"No, really, trust me, it works"

"How does it work? Why does it work?"

"It just works. End of story."

Blind faith isn't proof that anything works.
