[stylist] Monthly telephone gathering- this coming Sunday

Sun Apr 25 13:46:39 UTC 2010

That would be very cool. However  muting the mikes I'd think would be 
necessary to avoid extraneous background noise. Also there is Ventrilo 
which can be had fairly cheaply. A buddy of mine bought a room license for 
like $28 for up to 15 people for a year. The need to  mute a mike isn't 
necessary as it is automatically muted unless you use the talk key. Some 
folks are familiar with this program too from other  internet  community 
gatherings.

The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we 
miss it,
but that it is too low and we reach it
