Time wise the current time is as good as any for me. I play pool on a Sunday night and don't get home until about 11pm my time (6pm EST) anyway.

The room is available 24hrs a day every day (short of Tripod or Hearme themselves going down) and there is no reason why UK members could not start something of a bit earlier and let the US members join in/ start again later...

I know that Dave (TAM) could not get in and it looked to have something to do with the Human Click banner I had placed on the page. I have removed that, at least temproraly until I know the situation but if anybody else was having trouble, it may be worth trying again.

I have made another Hearme resource available on my web space at http://members.tripod.co.uk/jonbanjo/rooms/rooms.htm. This provides access to 4 of hearme's internet wide channels (which are unfortunately inabited but idiots some of the time) as well as a facility to set up a room that is private within my domain (in this case Tripod.Com). If 2 or more peple agreed on a room name, they could use this to have a reasonably private (nothing is totaly secure) conversation.
