CL has live chat room software, linked under the info centre drop down menu.I noticed that Sid and I where making posts here tonight at the same time!! If any of you are interested, we should pick a day/evening, time and try it out. Adds to the comradary(sp?)It would be a nice addition to the forum that we all seem to like. Since we're spread out all over the continent, the chat would serve as meeting place. Any thoughts here? Eric [This message has been edited by Eric (edited May 25, 2004).]

Sounds really good to me. I feel a bit isolated way down here without the opportunity to see first hand what others have done with their 'Pipers.

Robert of Celtic Kiss and I had brought this up a while back. We could not find any time or folks interested. It is very difficult to get people on line at the same time due to time zones, families and other activities.
I think it would be neat if a scheduled time could be set. I would try to participate

Ok then!
Would you like to try next Wednesday night?
Timing maybe difficult. whited is on the Atlantic coast, Hyperstich and Robert are in in the rockies, and a bunch of us in the middle  .
How does 2100hrs est (Toronto) sound?
I'll be there regardless, so if it works, great! 
Hope you all can make it. I'm looking forward to it!Eric

I will try to be there. This could be great.
I have only put the new trailer plate on.
I have done no work on the boat yet. Too many chores returning from the south and the RAIN.
See ya Wed. evening.

ZULU and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) are one & the same. You are correct, when we go on daylight savings time we advance one hour...putting us one hour closer to GMT.
So...at this time of year Atlantic Daylight Saving time (ADT) is only 3 hours behind GMT
My 2200 hrs is their 0100.

Anyone interested in the Chat Tomorrow may want to do a test run into the chat room. I just did and had no problem. But did have to download some software. Sid
