Being new (but a quick study) at Full Internet Access, I can understand the confusion at how one gets onto a specific channel in IRC. My software (Netcom) is all point & Click, so I just move my mouse around and click it to the IRC Icon and it prompts me for a channel. I chose #GCFA because it is short. I also chose a secondary channel #FERRET to point the way to the channe, in case folks forgot the initials. I'm not familiar with other IRC software so I can't tell you how to access it from them . I'm told it's not directly accessible from CI$, Delphi, AOL or any other partial internet provider. I may find a way to link it with a www page, but I can't promise anything. For now, those who CAN access it, we're on Thursday and Sunday nights from 8pm til ??? (Central Time). [Posted in FML issue 1409]
