Post Will you be attending the chat with Matt Ridley?
Our chat with Dr. Matt Ridley is fast approaching. As you all know it is scheduled for Friday, November 28th at 3:00pm Eastern. If you're in a different time zone please check one of the following sites to make sure you know the proper time:

www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/

www.worldtimeserver.com/

www.worldtimezone.com/

You are all welcome to invite anyone you like to the chat session with Dr. Ridley, but be sure to limit your invitations to people you trust will be mature and respectful. I would really appreciate this.

We will be using our personal chat room as opposed to the chat room on our EZBoard. You can get to this chat room by clicking on the "CHAT" link in the orange link bar across the top of every page on the BookTalk site. On our forums page the link bar is not orange, but you can still click on the CHAT link to get in the room. Do NOT forget that we are not using the EZBoard chat room. On the day of the chat many people will end up sitting in there scratching their heads wondering why everyone forgot about the chat.

So the question remains...

Will you be attending the chat session?

As California Arnold Schwarsinegger (?) would say, "I'll be there", (or was that "I'll be back"?)

Turs out that because of an exam I have, I won't be near a computer until 9 o'clock. Does that mean that, I'm going to miss the chat?
