This Saturday--October 4, 2003--will be our first time to try out the new meeting time. Temp and I have settled on 4:00 pm Pacific/6 Central "Forum" time/7 Eastern/12 am (midnight) UK, in the usual "Fate of Io" AIMer chat.

We'll probably be reviewing the idea of characters' elemental affinity and then moving on to talk about how our new idea relates to the Antarean language and its pyramid representation. Temp (and perhaps you too, Davy?) might be joining us a little late, whereupon he will attempt to keep up while using a qwerty keyboard. All in all, it should be pretty exciting.

Hope to see all y'all there!

Curse this foul keyboard layout.

Um...qwerty keyboard as opposed to what? But anyway, I can't make the meeting..I'm not much help, but, midnight is bad, considering I have to work the next day!

That's 10000 times better for me considering I come home at 7 PM PST on Fridays while on Saturday afternoons I'm usually bored... so count me in.

I normally use a Dvorak keyboard. I am using Qwerty until Wednesday because I am taking the GRE (like the SAT, except for grad students) that day and they do the test on computers now and they refused to let me use a Dvorak keyboard on the test. Bastards.

The result is that I have been typing very, very slow lately as I relearn the Qwerty layout (which I have not used in many years), and it is very frustrating!

<g> I hate alternate layouts! Good for people who do a hell of alot of typing like you Temp, but for me, that would be like learning to play the keyboard using a guitar fretboard. lol.
