Hi, everyone--
As our only option for a Yahoo chat is to use Yahoo Messenger (which
requires that someone start a conference chat and be at their
computer to invite people in, not to mention requires the chatters
to have Yahoo Messenger to be able to participate), I've looked
around and found a service called "Chatzy" (http://www.chatzy.com/).
It's free, allows us to create a room that we can use week after
week, and there's nothing to download or install, plus allows for
saving the chat (by copying and pasting). I suppose we'll find
some sort of catch eventually, but for now it looks pretty good. <g>
To get to the HPfGU room follow this link:
http://www.chatzy.com/792755223574
Create a user name for yourself, whatever you want to be called.
Enter the password: hpfguchat
Click "Join Chat" on the lower right. (May need to click this a
couple times.)
There are a few of us in there now, but this room is available 24/7,
so you can wander in and check it out any time you like.
We'd quite like to hear how people like this room, but please don't
post your comments here on the main list; instead, please use OTC:

Thanks, everyone!
