That is why I have developed a Write in to the Letter page. Sort of like a pen pal. This is a chat room for all members. It is hosted every Sunday at 9pm Eastern Time. No add-ons are required of your browser, and all are welcome.
Members post messages and reply to messages already posted.
Here is a great place to ask things that you are unsure of, and have many views of input. It is different from the newsgroups in one way though, it is a friendly place, not full of flame wars. You send in your email to the list address and the email is then distributed to the entire mailing list. This way you can send and receive thoughts from the entire list as quick as you can send an email. This is a way that was developed to allow members on AOL to easily recognize one another so they can chat at any time they are on line with another member.
