Mr. Happy, because the threads are NOT chats and people get very upset if they are used as chats.

An alternative to chat for you webbers is to just PM back and forth. It's actually just about as fast as chat, only with one person.

I like the chat for visiting, but I am really looking forward to using it for arguments over politics and so forth! *G* Maybe in realtime chatting we can make more sense than we do when we scribble a message to be read and argued back with, hours later-- maybe when we misunderstand we will be able to clear things up faster.
