Weekly Chat Reminder

2008-01-02 Thread William T Goodall

The Brin-L weekly chat has been a list tradition for over nine
years. Way back on 27 May, 1998, Marco Maisenhelder first set
up a chatroom for the list, and on the next day, he established
a weekly chat time. We've been through several servers, chat
technologies, and even casts of regulars over the years, but
the chat goes on... and we want more recruits!

Whether you're an active poster or a lurker, whether you've
been a member of the list from the beginning or just joined
today, we would really like for you to join us. We have less
politics, more Uplift talk, and more light-hearted discussion.
We're non-fattening and 100% environmentally friendly...
-(_() Though sometimes marshmallows do get thrown.

The Weekly Brin-L chat is scheduled for Wednesday 3 PM
Eastern/2 PM Central time in the US, or 7 PM Greenwich time.
There's usually somebody there to talk to for at least eight
hours after the start time. If no-one is there when you arrive
just wait around a while for the next person to show up!

If you want to attend, it's really easy now. All you have to
do is send your web browser to:

..And you can connect directly from the NEW new web
interface!

I take it that Bank's new Culture novel has been released somewhere in the  
world.  I pre-ordered it but it isnt going to be released here until the  
end of February.

Has anyone read it yet?

ATL Gmail

2008-01-02 Thread Doug Pensinger
OK, I set up a Gmail account such that it should receive mail from my
zo.comaddress and it should send mail using that address.  I sent test
messages
from another mail program and did not receive them on Gmail but did receive
them in that program.  I sent test messages from Gmail and received them
both in Gmail and my other program.  I also posted to the list from the
other program and didn't get it on Gmail but did get it on that program.

Any ideas?
