NOW I'm really confused. I agreed about not being able to open chat and read forum.. and read the idea of separate window, ctl N worked. So while I was here just posting ... I also checked on WHO's online and saw I was listed as in the chat room (OK) and anonymous was in chat also. HUH? it listed above only 1 person in chat. SOOOO when I went backtothe chat room, there were 2 of me! Only, one had a number after it like 3724 or something. I added a frown face and started to talk with "myself" and the other logged out. Gees... there really is an overlapping of realities tonight!
