[GLLUG] linux-user Digest, Vol 89, Issue 7

[Jeremy Neil]

ok first off if the subject of this email says what im told not to have it
say then, i dont know how to change it (im using gmail). if an IRC channel
was recreated, which by the way i was the one who suggested, i would have no
problem being on just about all day. however i know it would take much more
then just one person. i on the other hand find it hard to talk with this
email type of conversation and, i find irc a very quick and easy way to
communicate with another. since i dont have a reliable way to travel to
schulers at the moment other then walking and i dont liek waiting a long
time i just find it easier to talk via IRC. well, its nice meeting all of
you who ever it is thats a part of gllug. if i find out how to use the email
system better then perhaps i'll speak more. oh yeah i believe #gllug has
been taken by the greater london linux users group :/
