Please do. Jean would be happy to send everyone that subscribes a list of upcoming chats. Bettye Looney Bowerman
Bettye: She would have to subscribe to the list, which is simple enough. Pat
http://huntsville.about.com/mpchat.htm Select Log on to Chat Under Nick Name type in what you want the Chat Room to call you. The other two below that are not necessary. Scroll down until you see Password (for some rooms) and give yourself a password. I'm assuming you have to have a password. Never tried to connect without it. Now select OK, Connect! In the upper right side of the screen is a button Float. Select that to get rid of all the advertising at the top. Enlarge the screen so you can see everything. At the bottom of the screen is an area TYPE HERE. Highlight the Type Here and start typing your question. Hope this helps Bettye Looney Bowerman
Saw your e-mail about the chat room. Have been trying to figure out how to get in. Please advise. Have some questions concerning Samuel Wilson Looney dying in Texas. He is my greatgreatgrandfather, from Dallas county Arkansas.

No, didn't poop out on them. I had to work over time yesterday and couldn't be there. Jean usually sends out a formal invite. If enough people want the chat then maybe we could send Jean e-mails expressing our interest. I'm going to be working OT for a few weeks so I won't be able to be at all the chats. Jean's address is [email protected] I think she would like someone to stay and work the Admin part. Can she send the invites directly to the [email protected]?? If so would our Admin please let her know? Bettye Looney Bowerman
OK, you guys. My Mom joined this list a few days back and she is planning a trip to the IOM next month. I think that she has only heard from one person. I am pretty sure that there are few people here that might be able to give some hints and tips. She has been there before, but I am sure that she would like to hear some of your ideas for side trips, etc. Right now she is out searching for a car rental, I think. She got her hotel earlier. So, are there any seasoned IOM people on the list these days? Just thought that I would put out some more feelers for her. Laura
Thanks Steve for the info! The the listmaster: I will not be on the computer for 3 weeks. I am undergoing surgery for a rotator cuff injury to the shoulder. Could you please hold all mail to me until the end of April? Thank you. Pam Looney [email protected]
