I don't have much to contribute and seldom can make an immediate reply. It is running in a small window in the background of whatever tasks I am trying to do. As to newnet servers, you just have to keep trying...usually I am connected through Florida or Seattle (I am in California). But the best connection has been through Sweden. The regular participants in the US are in central or eastern time zones. Out of country participants are from England and Australia and are typically posting their time in the evening after work or very early in the morning. A lot of personal photographs on web pages are exchanged that never hit the PAW or LUG. (Never mine, since my esteemed spouse controls our web page and forget shoving anything on to it as an immediate example to illustrate one's point). Oh, and it used to be a lot more fun before SonC registered the channel and the BOT took over!!! I haven't been a channel op since that time ;-(( Join in...if people have time from their jobs, you will learn a lot. And you will be able to pick up slang terms from NJ, the Cajun country, British Isles and Australia. (Important for people from Chi-Town which is the center of modern American English).
