Mr. Pladuim has brought to my attention a way for members to chat online and not need to tie up forum topics with chit-chat. This is a trial to see how people like it, and if the response is positive, we may install a chat system within the Hut, that will be used by members only.
To log in and see who else it on, point to http://xat.com/TownsendBrown
You do not have to register on the site to use the chat, although registration has some other features (frills) that may be appealing to some. When you first SIGN IN your screen name will be something the Xat system assigns so if you want to change it to your Quonset Hut user name, you can do so simply by clicking on your ID in the list of users online and type in your Hut user name. Be sure you press "OK" to save the change(s) you made.
May be a fun way for some people to communicate and have discussions that are not "on-topic" or relevant to TTB.
I'm going back to the beach! See you all again after the spring thaw begins...Brrrr!
