John... we pick a time (like 10pm on a Saturday Night, for example) that
would be mid-morning your time, lunchtime in Europe etc... and still doable
for the Aussies... It's not a problem for me, some of my best friends are
middleAmericans, with a 16 hour delay, and we meet via MUDs or IRC nearly
every day, more often when their husbands are away ;)... It's just a matter
of picking a time and just doing it. It's impossible to arrange a time that
suits everyone, but to just pick a time and start. I'll take it you're a
definate maybe based on time ;)

Andrew you're right only the non-working wives would be available at a time like
that. 10 pm Saturday in Oz is 7 am FRIDAY CST, 8 am EST and 5 am on the west
coast. And Harro, unless he has a really cushy job :-) is in the middle of his
work day (2pm on a Friday) Unless they're dialing up from work it's a little
difficult to do. I don't think you all in Oz will be interested in starting at
10 pm on a Sunday! It really is a lot more convenient the way it is now which
doesn't require that you set aside a certain time to mess with this. We have
enough of that from our local clubs. Besides if all of that computer stuff :-)
that Scott Hunt was talking about really is a problem chatting shouldn't be the
route to go.
