    Hmmm... being a cynic, MJ, I can't share your enthusiasm on this quite
yet. My experiences with browser-based chat have been kludgy and not much
fun. Give me Efnet or give me death, I always say. Still, I'm hoping to be
thrilled by the bells and whistles of the meeting place software, I like
the idea that people can sit in little rows with each other - have people
already decided who they want to sit with? Personally, I want to be
smooshed between Tim C. And Robert K. ;-)  I hope to see everyone there.

    Speaking of Efnet, I open a room called #glenn_gould at least three
times a week, and to date no one has ever shown up. I blame it on the time
differences. :-\

TTFN,
Kristen
PS - it's happening Wednesday night, not tomorrow... right? Now I'm paranoid.
