Is anyone interested in setting up a regular live chat. Because of time zones, I was think of an east coast (US) chat starting at 8:00pm once a week. Each chat session would have a topic for discussion. Other time-zones could also be established? How about Thursdays at 8:00pm?

I'm trying to work out what time that would be GMT? Any idea anyone??

Be tipical of me to be all signed on an hour late and wondering where everyone was! [Roll Eyes]

So, is anyone interested in starting a weekly on-line topical 8mm chat?

Thursdays starting 8:00pm?

I'm in the chat room until 8:30pm, Hey someday maybe this will catch on ....

Only two people tonight! Can't we do better or is it that most of the 8mm community is dying off ...

Can you get into it?
I can't so I'm left wondering if it is USA only.
By the way 8pm is that the middle of the night here in UK?

I can get in ok, but there's never anyone else in there [Frown]

. Having said that Chip was there on one occassion but I didn't seem to get any response from him. May be he was logged on but not at his pc. Chip?

I like the idea of setting a time and logging on but I think it is likely that it will be either one side of the Atlantic or the other due to the Time difference.

Done it, got in.

When I login to forum I use a small d and p, doing that on Chat does not work. It does if I use capital D and P.

Just spent a good hour having good chatting to Henry Perangelo he was 5 hours behind UK.

Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) is only GMT -0400, it's not that big of a difference. Not much different than the chats on www.film-tech.com between people on the North American east and west coasts.
