Mugs: thanks chirho
chirho: but you info can be too easily dispersed...
Judylca: I only put ones I know on list
Mugs: What do you mean info dispersed?
chirho: from the info you give, anyone can request you through the data base.
chirho: also some yoyo is sending viruses
chirho: so don't auto accept ANYTHING
SplitLevelHead: how awful!
Mugs: oic
Judylca: I got a message not to open any mail with subject "Join the crew"

Judylca: Hi dirk
SplitLevelHead: you missed all the excitement earlier... *g*
dirk2: OK I was wondering if I was alone!
SplitLevelHead: there was intruder here that i had to forcibly remove
SplitLevelHead: my netbody was here then, but my mind was doing something else
dirk2: Sounds interesting
SplitLevelHead: someone i'd never heard of came in here and parked it, and then
wouldn't respond to any questions
SplitLevelHead: so eventually I ejected him/her/it
SplitLevelHead: it was kinda fun...
SplitLevelHead: echos is coming
dirk2: will have to watch out for that. If u want to park and listen what is the
protocal
SplitLevelHead: i really hope we get some turnout tonight
SplitLevelHead: if i know who you and that you're supposed to be here, don't worry
SplitLevelHead: this person was in some other room talking as well

Judylca: echos, I've only been on IRC about a month...newby myself
echos: I think I'm on top of it
SplitLevelHead: and things i should change
echos: Saw some great Irish "stuff" this am
SplitLevelHead: if i want to be more accessible

Judylca: yes, I'm considering giving up that page I madw with MSPUB and just do
something simpler
Judylca: share, echos!
SplitLevelHead: you can still use those nice grafx though...

technical part.
dirk2: Hi
dirk2: had fun with the Shield tho
SplitLevelHead: no, they're individual images, Judy... you can reference them from
another document
Judylca: If it doesn't have an engine, my son's not interested
SplitLevelHead: shield?
SplitLevelHead: oh... now i get it
Judylca: Oh...good, cause I kind of liked the top one
SplitLevelHead: took me a second there
dirk2: Image or Coat of Aewms
dirk2: Arms that is :-)
SplitLevelHead: cool
SplitLevelHead: So, does anyone have any questions?
Judylca: I haven't learned to make any art..step-daughter's a graphics art
student..gonna have her show me
SplitLevelHead: that's good
Judylca: yes, those borders that I put around some of my text..are they a problem?
SplitLevelHead: borders where?
dirk2: where do you get the logs for these sessions if you don't make it.
SplitLevelHead: chirho is putting them up on the group page
SplitLevelHead: the last 2 are there
dirk2: Do you take Boarders? ;->

Judylca: yes...
Judylca: Is the page, light pebbled gray with Navy and TEal print to you?
SplitLevelHead: yeah, that's it
Judylca: well, anyway we have that part in common *LOL*
SplitLevelHead: hee hee
robyn1: Judy you mean the border around your links?
dirk2: What does mine look like on N/S4? http://www.islandnet.com/~hdoherty
SplitLevelHead: coming right up...
Judylca: that's the one...you see it!
Judylca: there's also a hairline border around the surnames
SplitLevelHead: i don't see those at all
robyn1: didn't notice the one around the surnames will go and look again
SplitLevelHead: looks nice, Dirk... but the crest graphic doesn't come up
Judylca: dirk, I have MSIE and the shield's not coming up..
Judylca: I see the white box where it belongs but no pic
SplitLevelHead: i've got question mark little thingie
Judylca: Nice looking page tho'.
dirk2: Very interesting
SplitLevelHead: well, i think i kinda like the 'hairy beast' look for the moat
monster...
Judylca: I have little red "x"..click on it but nothing happens
SplitLevelHead: he's leaping in an attack position
Judylca: slh,*LOL* he's your monster!
SplitLevelHead: i know, i know
Judylca: Big teeth?
robyn1: Crest didn't come up for me either
SplitLevelHead: big enough, and big claws... and his tongue is hanging out, too
robyn1: Judy only a line at top and bottom of surnames

* SplitLevelHead is sorry she wasn't able to email everyone... Been having problems
with puter access lately...

opossum: It sounds as if you had a good meeting last week. (I read the log.)
SplitLevelHead: i hope we did...
SplitLevelHead: a little repeat...
SplitLevelHead: Does anyone have anything pressing you wanna ask, discuss, etc...
echos: Yours are great too :-)
robyn1: where is the log? I couldn't find it
opossum: You were all wondering if anything had been accomplished, but I can't
imagine anything more productive than looking at each other's sites with
different browsers!
echos: are we going to learn how to setup a page with downloadable gedoms.
(zipped?)
opossum: On chirho's study group page!
SplitLevelHead: i guess we could...
SplitLevelHead: i haven't actually done that yet...
robyn1: our private page?
SplitLevelHead: i don't want to give out the one with everything (living data)
echos: I ran into some on UK pages and seems real convenient
SplitLevelHead: and i don't think it's real useful to have the crippled one there
either
echos: These would be short gedcoms
SplitLevelHead: but i will pass on data to someone who discovers they are related
and wants a chunk of it
SplitLevelHead: they just have to ask for it
opossum: You mean after using ged Clean SLH
SplitLevelHead: yeah
SplitLevelHead: i don't think i'd want to pull in something that's missing info
SplitLevelHead: rather get it right from the researcher
Mugs: This is the Fian study group page with the logs dead link: was Study Page
robyn1: thanks
echos: this would be a page to set the gedcome for others thanks
echos: oops
opossum: I am not ready to put my site up yet at all!! However, I am looking up
and bookmarking all the neat sites Marthe is tellin us about. Where does she
find all that stuff?
SplitLevelHead: good question
SplitLevelHead: how far from ready?
SplitLevelHead: our url section is rather bare
SplitLevelHead: Has anyone looked at the group pages of any of the other groups?
echos: still just 3?
SplitLevelHead: B'lieve so
echos: some
robyn1: I don't have mine ready to put up
opossum: Really far. So far I have a very basic template from my html class
saved!!!

page, like some other groups have done?
echos: sound good to me
SplitLevelHead: And of course i should ask the disty at large, too
opossum: Not me!!
SplitLevelHead: not even just a city
SplitLevelHead: never mind...
robyn1: what locations are we talking about
Mugs: I think its okay
SplitLevelHead: locations of the group members

some where

7

1/2
echos: really-don't give up

'really' as incredulous
JudyLca: Hi all
SplitLevelHead: H'lo Judy!
echos: Hi Judy
echos: I've learned a lot-having to stretch my self
* SplitLevelHead wonders if this will be all that's
coming tonight
chirho: Hi, Judy!
JudyLca: Hi chirho
chirho: Sent an email to Hugh 1/2 an hour ago....
He didn't know time or place..
SplitLevelHead: how could he forget? it's the same
thing everytime
SplitLevelHead: no different than the week before
that, and the week before that
chirho: Well, move we commence
echos: seconded
SplitLevelHead: All righty then...
SplitLevelHead: Here's what's up for tonight,
folks!
SplitLevelHead: 1) URL announcements from those
who are ready.
SplitLevelHead: 2) Questions from the floor.
SplitLevelHead: 3) Now you may have your surprise!
SplitLevelHead: Moment to read that...
SplitLevelHead: the first question is almost a
moot point given the crowd we have tonight
SplitLevelHead: We already know yours
* chirho did four different trial versions at
http://www.geocities.com/fam/fam.html, feel free
to take a look at what they do!
echos: here is mine:Here's my new URL http://homep
age.usr.com/s/soulvoice/57617.shtmlthis is new
8:-))
* SplitLevelHead was hoping for a larger crowd
tonight, since I'd built up so much suspense
chirho: Still working at getting a better GEDCOM
put together for a final version...
SplitLevelHead: keep on cookin'... that's the
way...
chirho: echos, can I post that on the page yet?
*** echos has quit IRC (Connection reset by peer)
SplitLevelHead: ummm... that geo url...? shouldn't
there be a number and an area?
chirho: yup
SplitLevelHead: and they are...?
chirho: I have geoplus, so it's ~hoseahouse
* chirho did four different trial versions at
http://www.geocities.com/~hoseahouse/fam/fam.html,
feel free to take a look at what they do!
SplitLevelHead: there it is!
SplitLevelHead: so i guess we can move on to #2,
then
SplitLevelHead: Are there any problems you'd like
to discuss? Does anyone have any questions
they're desperate for an answer to?
chirho: Judy, do you have a URL to post yet?
JudyLca: I have an url...but can't remember it
(hangs her head in shame!)
chirho: You had some good ideas going the night we
worked on the HTML...
JudyLca: Haven't made any of the needed changes
yet anyway. You've seen it
JudyLca: I do have a question
SplitLevelHead: yes?
JudyLca: I'm in IIGS and use the IRC rooms there.
JudyLca: We've set up a chat session for Irish
Genealogy
JudyLca: It's going great and we have lots of
people and lots of questions
JudyLca: What we don't have is anyone that knows
any answers!
chirho: ????? about genealogy? chat/html?
JudyLca: I have been asked to see if there is
someone in this group that might be willing to
attend and help
chirho: What time? #?
JudyLca: Yes, it's on rootsweb.com
JudyLca: Mondays at 3pm CST
JudyLca: I usually just /list
chirho: I'm a working gal, can't do it
JudyLca: there are seldom more than 2-3 rooms open
JudyLca: Me too, chirho, I make it when I can get
home in time but that's not consistent
JudyLca: I don't have any answers anyway
chirho: See if you can invite some folks from some of the other channels...
chirho: there's a list in the Hideaway.
JudyLca: Other channels where?
JudyLca: Oh, ok
chirho: Did you join Fianna-L?
JudyLca: I had never used IRC before IIGS..
JudyLca: Yes, but got unsubscribed the other
day..resubbed now
SplitLevelHead: Judy... Could you look at the
private message, please?
chirho: You know how to get to the Hideaway?
JudyLca: Thought about posting to the list

people in the know?
JudyLca: cesario, yes!
JudyLca: We've had great attendance but don't have
answers to the questions
Cesario: I asked Andrew Morris to visit sometime
back and he said that maybe in the Fall he could
- you could try him - he is into Ireland research
JudyLca: I am co-contact but basically just an
e-mail address to use...have no information to
give on IRC or Ireland! *LOL*
* SplitLevelHead wishes the rest of the group had
been here to get the big news...
JudyLca: That would be great..the other contact,
HLA is Irish living in England but still can't
answer enough...needs help
Cesario: Also - there is another person - let me
look - he was receptive to an invitation...
JudyLca: Is Andrew Morris in IIGS?
chirho: And for North Ireland, what about Linda
Merle?
Cesario: Linda is definitely a good idea!
Cesario: Michael O'Laughlin is the other person I
had talked to
JudyLca: How can we contact these people?
Cesario: there is a bio online for him at
http://www.irishroots.com/bio.html

they are both very into Irish genealogy
* SplitLevelHead reminds y'all that next week is
the last class... PARTY TIME!!!

grafx, etc... And let's play...
* SplitLevelHead seconds that pleading
echos: I think you have mine ???
SplitLevelHead: We'll miss *you* echos...

JudyLca: SLH, I'm going to compare the "source" on
the 2 versions of the page and see where the
differences are...should be enlightening

weapon
echos: daaaaa
SplitLevelHead: you'll see quite a difference...

SplitLevelHead: Duct-tape hold the universe
together! *g*

chance to say "brb"

me buried in Duck tape at this rate
