The real reality is that some of those people that are even at the end of the road are not going to make it. If they can go find a better way, if they can go find their higher power in church or some other organization, my hat's off to them. But I do try to emphasize that we in this meeting will help you. We'll go to any lengths, but you've got to be in the meeting. You've got to come to meetings. Do the footwork.
