I have good news and bad news.
The good new is that we now have a functioning Chat room. We purchased an off the shelf, bare-bones module while trying to fix the fancier version.
The bad new is that because this is a free standing module it doesn't link back to the "who's chatting" section of our website. People may be in chat, but you won't be able to tell without entering chat yourself.
I have a couple of suggestions about this:

I have a couple of suggestions about this:
1) Try dropping in to Chat when you have time to see if anyone is there. If possible, linger for a while in hopes someone else will drop in.
2) When you know you have time to be in Chat, post on the main bulletin board that you will be there. Others may see the post and choose to join you.
3) Find a set time when you will be in chat and post a message about that. (Be sure to include time zone information!)
I hope we can revive the chat community. I have great memories of meeting new people, talking about good food, good fun, melanoma issues, family issues.
Oh, and we think we have solved the problem with slow posting as well. A glitch in something called Apache….
