As for skype, does it host a lot of simultaneous calls?
I was thinking of webex perhaps, but that's typical of me being an IT geek.

webex? wtf, anyway we'll all be psychic soon. Can do multi chat invites on skype not sure about live calls, anyway we all know what is going on. Did you see yer man has an old army base in norway, he's looking for volunteers, although i think i'll be going west soon.

Nope, where's that info?

West? I'm guessing you've been looking at the flooding map of Ireland?

Well SW Cork & Kerry do have some impressive hills including one at the back of my house, but if flooding were that quick and to such a level it'd mean an initial flood level much higher...I try not to think about it tbh, I'm happy to have the flexibility of being close to the sea and a mountain


Scratch webex btw, it only handles 4 vid cams. Conference voice calls would be no bother at all of course. Lots of free software around to handle that. eg- teamspeak etc.

Pity you can't make it Pilgrim, Conaire, Feardia, Andy, Islandman,

that idea of a vid/conference call sounds good. Whats the harm in trying it anyway?

maybe if the arrangements were put in place and a call in number given out we could do this once a week, even if only to say hello?

to those that are going to meet on friday... what would u like to talk about? what are the most important issues and topics u'd like to cover? although i can't b there on the night i'd like to be somewhat part of the morphic field.

someone mentioned a flooded ireland. what are u'r thoughts on this? will we be under water? coastal areas or the whole island? personally, i'd b more worried about the ocean conveyer belt failing and covering our island and more in a permafrost. that is, if i WAS to actually worry about it at all

in college last week one of the profs said "worry is like a rocking horse, gives u lots to do but gets u no where".

i just feel the west is the best place to be, i wouldn't fancy dublin and if i planted a garden round here the kids would wreck it... anyway when it comes to the bit we'll just have to jump in the river, see where it takes us, still a few people to wake up, and there's not a part of the nation you couldn't walk to in ten days, even Skibbereen

Hello There,

Thanks for all those who posted their intentions re. Meeting Friday.
If your not able to make it, ahh well, next time eh?

So far it looks like 3 of us, Antonia. Skylark and Meself.
Good enough for me.

I'll be there at around 6.30 anyway so if yer coming along, see ya there!

I think somone posted asking what we intend discussing etc...

To be honest, these first meetings tend to be more about getting to know each other, with sporadic comments about stuff thrown in all over the place.

To me, these meetings are just the first small steps on the road to something bigger. We gotta start somewhere.

I am sure that before long we will have bigger more formal type meetings but for now I think its grand just to meet and have a pint and get to know each other a bit better. I honestly don't expect much more than that at the moment and sure thats grand, Im happy once were meeting at all.

See ya,

Merlin.

yep,
what merlin said.
