Hi all,
I came in a few times, I saw Heather and other poepole which I didn't recidnize most of them, tried to say Hi a thousand times, made sure I wasn't muted, and no one answered me. Did people hnot hear me? Did everyone just ignore, me? and thanks to Allison I got the number because I had gotten it from Heather before but my computer froze. yeah, I fel ttotillity ignored on there, and like why bother and left out. It really sucks.

I thought I heard Heather ask "Did I hear John"? I said yes it is I, but no one heard me I guess...

I went there, and... noone noticed me. I think, next time I have one, I'll only inform a select few people of it. It'll probably happen sometime sunday evening. Those of you who have me on MSN/AIM, talk to me.

I sometimes have phone conferences with some friends of mine, and I find the more people there are on a conference, the more people will talk over one another and somebody new coming in might not be heard. Sometimes I guess you can get in on a line where somehow your level is lower so you don't come across as loud as you usually do. Ideally I like a small conference of perhaps five or six people max.

Oh... After most people left, mind you this was like 4 something EST, I could be heard... My clel I don't think is that loud... Those of you who were on later, like way late was I actually heard? Okay, probably took it personal, I get that way sometimes. John And PS> Its all good in the hood.

Hi John,
I understand how you feel. I was on the blindwomenover45 group, and they have a conference line every month, and they do that on there too, and these were folks in my own age group and older. I'm totally disenchanted with conference calling now, and what ever group I'm in, I'd rather be in a group where I know everyone and everyone knows me, or no one knows each other at all, it's a more friendly gathering that way. I like small gatherings myself, whether it would be a conference call, or a chat room. Anyway, I think you and I are alike on this one. I'm not saying I've never ignored anyone, it just depends on the situation. If a person has been offensive to me, or if I think he/she is offensive, then I don't talk to them, unless they ask me something and they're at least civil, but no, I'm not one of those, you aren't part of my group type of ignorers.

WW, do you have free long distance on the weekends? If so, maybe you and I and some select others could do a conference sometime and have a little chat. Caitlin

A set of pages is coming soon to make this whole conferencing thing easier. Stay tuned.

Hi Caitlin,
No, we don't have that kind of service, so no free calls on the weekends.
