>Hello Everyone:
>
>This is a reminder of the Pianotech Inter-Relay Chat (IRC) held twice a 
>week live on the Internet. Come have a virtual coffee and talk shop or just 
>chat for a while.  Information on how to join us can be found below.
>
>Chat times are Tuesday and Thursday evenings from about 8pm-1am Eastern 
>Standard/Daylight Time for North America and Greenwich Mean Time (which is 
>Tuesday mornings in North America) for those in Europe and points East.
>
>There is an International Sunday chat as well, taking place Sunday mornings 
>for those in North America and Sunday Evening for those closer to 
>Greenwich.
>
>The #pianotech channel is carried on the family-oriented and comparatively 
>safe "Starlink-IRC" network. Starlink-IRC supports the #pianotech channel 
>with a browser-based Java chat as well as WEB-TV.
>
>To those who do not wish to learn (or load) another program or have had 
>problems connecting with us in the past, connecting to the live chat is 
>also simple if your browser supports "Java" as most modern browsers do. Go 
>to: http://www.starlink-irc.org/ and select one of the Java Chat servers. 
>Click on "No Channel", Put a nickname into the appropriate box (don't put 
>anything in the others) on the screen that comes up,  and click on Connect. 
>Type:   /join #pianotech  into the box, press <ENTER> and you should be in.
>
>This is an excellent 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 from conventions. Discussions 
>range from shop talk about tools and techniques to piano design and of 
>course, using the Internet. Additional public and private "rooms" can be 
>set up instantly for mini-technicals if required without having to leave 
>the #pianotech channel.
>
>The #pianotech "ftp" site, with MIDI files, pictures and other materials 
>used in current and previous discussions can be found at: 
>http://www.musselwhite.com/pub/piano/
>
>Complete information about the IRC channel can be found on the "Official 
>#Pianotech WWW Page" at: http://www.musselwhite.com/ircpiano.html
>
>Many thanks to Kathleen and David Vanderhoofven for developing the page.
>
>For detailed information on Starlink-IRC including how to connect with your 
>browser or through WEB-TV please go to: http://www.starlink-irc.org/
>
>If anyone has any questions, please EMail  me unless you feel the list 
>participants 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 as well as 
>Sundays (or ANY time!) in #pianotech on Starlink-IRC.
