Hi Connie and any other interested parties. To get to the undernet you need to use a program called PIRCH. This can be downloaded from the internet (I think at www.pirch.com or try your servers' ftp site). PIrch is easy to install, as it is a self extracting zip file, just click in the file you have down loaded and follow the on-screen instructions. Once you have pirch installed, configure it with your name, and e-mail address (how to do this will be obvious when you have the program in front of you), and give yourself a nickname (this is the name that will appear on the chat channel screen). Select either the Las Vegas or Phoenix UNDERNET server and log on (you need to be already logged on to your internet provider). A long message will scroll across your screen. Wait until you are advised that you are logged on then type /join #parkinsons . After a short delay the screen will change and you will be logged on to #parkinsons chat. For a fuller explaination try Marvin Giles' home page. I don't recall his URL but you can reach it via a link on the PD information page of my homepage, the address of which is in my signature group. I look forward to meeting you.
