Yep, though that's really not always true (had the pleasure of attending some a ways back with a friend in need). But a funny point about certain immutabilities in personalities - another friend of mine who's been sober/straight 15 years was telling me how he loves when the Al-Anon people have a meeting nearby or after his now-occasional AA meetings, because they always clean up everyone's mess. He was only sort of joking.
