Also, another limitation of America Online's chat is that you can't send a paragraph. You can only send a small two line (about 50 chars each line) message. Hence all the damn fragmentation... :-) Sorry if it's too much of a hassle for you guys to follow. At least you can see it from my viewpoint as I saw it live. The official version will [un]fortunatly not have all that neat stuff in it... As Gibson (was it Gibson) said on his trip to Singapore as documented in Wired, "I miss all the fractals" referring to the litter on the streeet. :-) Now, imagine if EVERYONE could see all 85 folks talking at the same time in this manner. The fragmentation caused by what you saw was only from about 6 folks + the folks on stage!!!!!
