Hello Everyone: This your weekly reminder of our regular Tuesday and now Thursday night live chat on Starlink.org. There is generally someone in the #pianotech IRC channel from 8 PM to 1 AM (or so) Eastern Daylight time. This is an exciting opportunity to interact with other technicians worldwide in real time. On either of the two nights you may run into many people whom you may know from these lists and conventions. Discussions range from shop talk (lately including player and reproducing pianos as well) to using the internet and all topics are welcome. Additional "rooms" can be set up at any time for mini-technicals if required. For those with WWW access, complete information about the IRC channel can be found on the excellent "Official #Pianotech WWW Page" at: http://www.clandjop.com/~dkvander/ircpiano.html The IRC Piano page has links to where you can download IRC clients for Windows and the Mac if you do not currently have a program that allows you to connect to us on IRC. Information for AOL users and the addresses of IRC "servers" that carry #pianotech are listed. Regular participants can have their information on the page too just so people know who you are. Many thanks to Kathleen Vanderhoofven for developing and hosting the page. If anyone has any questions, please EMail me unless you feel the group might be interested. Live chat is a great way to exchange ideas or just spend some time in friendly conversation with like-minded people. We're hoping to see some of you Tuesday and/or Thursday evenings (or ANY night!) in #pianotech on Starlink IRC.
