- At the 3rd AA International Conference, the Associationalists began referring to the Accidentalists as "blind men." One misguided clamper, for example, tried to impress Verna Cable with his wit. Leaning over his cocktail, he slurred, "What's a blind man think if you hit him with a stone? All accident, no association!" She responded, "How many clampers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?" -- and kicked him in the nuts. As he fell, grimacing, she said, "Oops, my foot slipped. Hope you associate me with an aching groin, honey."
