 [ Editor's Note:
 [    IRC -- or Internet Relay Chat -- is the closest thing to "CB" Radio
 [ that the Internet has.  Unlike chat "rooms" on some of the online services,
 [ IRC is supposed to be available (interactively) to anyone on the Internet,
 [ regardless of who their service provider is.  I have never investigated
 [ how to use IRC -- up to now I thought it was mostly used by poeple discussing
 [ games and things of "questionable repute".  This topic certainly could
 [ change my opinion of IRC, especially if some non-novice technicians
 [ participate.
 [
 [ Have any of you used IRC, and if so, could you explain how to use it.
 [ I guess I was expecting an address to go along with the time...
 [
 [ Jody
 [
 [ P.S. If any of you should participate in this chat session, if you could possibly
 [      "capture" the session and forward it to us ?
