1.  On the main TER menu, there's a "On-line Chats" button

2.  Once you get to the chat menu, the first button is "Chat Rooms"

3.  The next screen isn't all that intuitive;  At the bottom of the text is bold letters "Click here to enter TER Chat" but it doesn't "look" like a button.

4.  Assuming all is well with your browser and Java, a seperate Chat window should pop up, with your TER screen name filled in.  Now everything else occurs in this pop-up, not in the TER web window.  Click "Enter".  I'm not sure if you can close the main TER window--some java apps die when their parent browser window is closed.  I'd just minimize the TER window.

5.  Click on the "Twin Cities" button, press enter again, and you're rockin.

I can't get you all the way into the chat, but I can get you past steps 1 and 2 by clicking the attached link.

The Twin Cities chat is members only.  Maybe we should meet in the TER Lounge so all can attend?

Non-members, speak up or forever hold your "piece"  

Damn you!  Now the rest of the day will be spent imagining you in your PJs.

I'm with Lisa.  Earlier would be better.  Actually I just wish I was with Lisa.  I meant I agree with Lisa.
