[Coco] Re: It's been awfully quite?

[Ken Carlin]

As long as the chat stuff doesn't detract from the regular CoCo messages in
the mailing list and split us all up, I'd have no problem seeing it used.

HOWEVER, something in my makeup just doesn't like, trust, or ever let me use
any of the chat-type things out there.  So I hope I wouldn't be missing some
informative bit of CoCo information by not ever participating in the chats.

Just my opinion.
