Yeah, I use mIRC personally, but a lot of folks are terrified of it. I
am going to teach sf to use it when I see her in a week or so...but it
is hard to talk someone through it online.

I am just glad folks are finding us, and we are having such fun chats
lately! I don't really care how they get there....if they can use
mIRC and can find it easy enough to use, then more power to them!

And we would love to see you in chat too, Carol.
