Hi, Rhi,

I went into a chat room here for the first time yesterday. Boy, it was boring. Nobody really talked about anything. Somebody might ask a question and get ignored. Everybody says hello and goodbye when people come in and go out. Half the people listed as being in the room didn't say a word, they just lurked. You don't HAVE to say anything, you know. You can just go in and be there, watching. Nobody cares whether you say something or not. I haven't been to a moderated chat here. Maybe they say things worth reading then. But in the half hour I spent there it was like, just, nothing. And certainly nothing to fear. Just go watch for a while.

Take care.
