Okay, I'm going to try having a chat channel tonight on the following little used IRC server:
Server: irc.scifi-fans.net
Ports 6660-6668,7000
Try joining the channel "OriginalTrilogy"
I use an old freeware program called mirc if you don't have IRC chat software of your own. (I've found browser based chat apps kind of klunky.) I'll try to be on most of the evening starting about 7:15 Pacific time, but I will be away from the keyboard at times. Good luck!
