[nfbcs] [Trainer-talk] Windows Live Messenger

Wait till Mike has to deal with Skype.  That'll blow his mind.

It was very weird, taking a music lesson using Skype rather than being in
person.  Weird.  
He could see everything I was doing and help correct things, but it was
still weird not being in person.

I don't really care for Windows Messenger, but this was at a friend's
request that I try it, which is why I'm asking the questions.

I'd rather talk.
