Default rfc chat basics

Hello!! Oh, nobody here. Gee, I gotta go cuz I can't wait around for 2-3
mins.


Clue, folks. If someone is in the room, it doesn't mean they are hanging on
their keyboard waiting breathlessly to respond to your entry into the chat
room the very second you log in. Yes, we also have lives and may actually
be living them. So, if you want to talk to someone in a chat room, remember
we are not there for your convenience. We are there to chat, like yourself
and wouldn't be there if we didn't want to. If you truly want to chat, hang
around a bit. We will get back in a few.

Thank you.

The peekers are an odd bunch. Anonymous came into the room today and
stayed silent for 30 minutes - didn't even bother to change names. I
was doing other internet related stuff and didn't notice "it".

"It" was probably me, I forgot I needed to change my nick.
No one was chatting anyway.

It's unusually silent for a virtual cook in day. MichaelK and I are
there now.

I am trying to get going... I am still very tired after my brutal
week...so I am very slow moving today. Plus, I am trying to pick up
all my mess before my landlord comes over in about an hour to turn off
my swamp cooler and turn on the heater.

I will be there in a bit...trust me....
