I think it's funny. I was talking to a friend of ours, therapist in Denver, who's recovery. But it just blows anonymity. He and I are the same age. And he's about the same sobriety and come from sort of the same tree of sobriety. And we talked about that about a month ago. He's like, you know, what do you think it is? What do you think the difference is? I said, well, I'll tell you what I think the difference is, is that, you know, I got sober in 1991.
