Although we have a regularly scheduled "Group Chat" every Thursday evening at 9:00 PM EST, the Chat feature is actually available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Anytime two or more members wish to chat, they may. If you ever want to chat, just send an e-mail to the group and let members know you're in the Chat Room and ask members to join you there. Or, use e-mail to contact a member/s you wish to chat with and set up a mutually agreeable time to meet in the "Chat Room".
