|
 |
|
Our December chat night seemed to be successful. Now I'm hoping to start generating momentum for a similar session in January.
Since Thursday is the customary day for such meetings and the hour is generally 9 p.m. EST, although 8 p.m. seemed to work out last time, I'm going to tentatively suggest we schedule our next week night chat for:
Thursday, January 24th at 9 p.m. EST.
Obviously, this is just a suggestion to get the ball rolling. We can adjust it depending upon the mood of those who plan to participate.
Please note, there is a separate thread about a weekend meet and greet chat session. I'm hoping we'll be able to do one of each every month.

| Evening chats are always going to be a flip of the coin opportunity for me, and since most people aren't going to be available in the day time on the weekend, the best bet for me is always going to be a daytime slot on the weekend. |

| That is Friday morning over in my part of the world. So, I'll try one of the weekend chats instead. |

If a chat date and time is determined I'd appreciate if someone called it to my attention so I can add it to the calendar and the Announcement area. It is probably best to send me an email or private message as I cannot always check every thread in a timely fashion.  |

Sorry about that, Chris. My fault.

George, thanks for your work in organizing all the chats. I think monthly chats could go a long way in helping to keep the forums active. Sorry I can’t make today’s weekend chat.
I’m still working out my schedule for the 24th. There’s a concert I want to see that night, but there’s an opportunity for me to rearrange my schedule a bit so I can see it at a different time. As soon as that works out, and I think it will, I’ll commit myself to the 24th chat. |
