last
Genealogy Flea Market on Afternet IRC. It was such a success we have
decided to make it a weekly event!! The day of the week will rotate so that
everyone can\should be able to participate at least occasionally. Join us
every Eighth day starting with March 20 at 5PM Eastern Time until the last
person leaves the channels.

IRC and MEET NETTIE AND EDDIE KAT on #GenealogyForum's webpage. There MANY
more good things to be had from researching on IRC than there are annoyances.
