some specific staff members
Anonymous:
The name Robert Chun (Chun, I think) comes to mind when you mention blacks in the program. He was senior staff in the early '70's, and a great guy.

I remember: Ann, who did my intake; Janice (was she the tall black gal always off to the girl's side?); Darlene, Libby, Suzie, Penny (ugh) John and Clay; Karl, thin guy always off to the guy's side (who married Vicki Burke), along with another guy who wore glasses, can't remember his name (maybe Rick - quiet guy); some guy about John's age from Ft. Lauderdale, can't recall his name, dark haired and tall (if memory serves he was nice enough); and a little tiny gal maybe Robin (?). I only remember Arthur coming down for a short time; then there's the gal rumoured to have married John, can't remember her name either. I can still see all their faces even if I can't bring up their names after 29 or 30 years or however long it has been and forever on the front row.

I remember Suzy when she was at the Cleveland seed.
She and Scott did my intake. I liked them both which probably helped my parents get me in there.
I liked them best because,at least then, they each had a sense of humor. Scott's before stories were often great fun and what a relief it was to laugh. The one I remember most clearly was a story about his getting into a drunken brawl
and going home thinking "steak, so I don't get a black eye". He put a frozen steak on his face and passed out. During the night the steak defrosted and the blood on his face dried with the blood on the steak. When he woke up he thought he was blind. I laughed my head off.
Suddenly one day he was gone, to work at the florida seed, folks said, although no one told us directly. About three months later he was back but he was totally different, no sense of humor, no laughter just deadly serious staff member standing at the side of group. I always wondered what happened to him. Clearly, someone thought he was having to much fun

You have a good memory, thanks for reminding me , there faces are coming back to me. remember Darlene Robertson and her little brother was on the program as well. Some of the staff members were real dorks out on the streets, and then they got to push us around, i always remember that big junkie ego thing with some of them of which many came from homes of privilage, and really knew nothing of the real streets. WE HAD TO GIVE UP OUR EGO SO THEY COULD INFLATE THEIRS ! I think more young kids wanted to try herion so they had a great story .

Hey richard, do you remember Art or John or anyone else saying they were in a drug rehab in New York?
