Chuck...we used to have a chat room available through a distributor for dye sub. We had a set day and time for it and it was quite well received for the year or so that it was up. There was always a target subjet, but, other stuff did get discussed.

Now, I belong to CuttingEdge Sandcarvers forum, and we have a chat set up for Friday evenings. I was on it for the first time last Friday and it too, was informative although it did get "way off" a few times.

And of course, you know well of the DSSI chat room that is up 24-7, attended mostly by the core 6-7 folks, more active some days than others.

I support the concept of chat rooms but believe for any real value, there has to be set times and days for real information. We are or should be too busy to sit by and keep an eye on the chat window all day.
