Yihaa! Back online and loving it. After half a day of fumbling around with telephone wire I finally had a bright moment and got the datatraffic running again.
So lets talk gemstones! Saturday at the usual time, that is 20.00 hrs GMT
1pm PST time 4pm EDT time 3pm CDT time
These new series will be a bit different then the 'sit still and listen to what the teacher says' chats we used to have. The topic will be known at least a week befor the actual chat and I invite everybody to read up a bit and contribute to the sharing of knowledge. This requires a bit more activity from the participants and I believe that this will come to your own good. I further want to invite all expierenced gemmo's out there to come and join in and let us pick your brains.
If I receive at least 2 pm's of people telling me they want an Australasian chat we'll have one on saterday as well at 0900hrs GMT (1600hrs Bangkok, 1900hrs Sydney)

ok... since last saturdays chat evolved into nothing followed by a 'let's pick alberto's brain thingy' we'll have a retry on corundum this saturday. A bit more serious approach will be in place I reckon.

hi folks,

ciao
alberto
PS: hey dragonstek, thx for your kind comments (or just kidding me, who knows?)
My DSL hasn't been kind to me lately, and is losing the connection every few seconds, so I doubt I can do the chat. But if a miracle happens and I can get online at that time I'll be there. As of now I can only access the net at night.
I'll attend, though it'll mostly be to listen - I don't think the tidbits of info I collected browsing books will not add much to the discussion. Looking forward to it though, I wonder if we might welcome a few surprise guests
