Hello Dr Sharon Aitken!

 DSA> want to do is log on to my laptop to have a quick chat
 DSA> with someone.

I use a computer all day too, but I am not averse to it after  
hours.  Actually, I still need to use one or two at home, and  
when I need a little break or distraction, I fire-up the  
messaging system and read something if there something new.


 DSA> I don't know all these other 'forums' and honestly don't
 DSA> have the time yet to learn about them.

CHAT is a very general place. It could use more company!   
Topics can be anything at this point.

CHAT (https://t.me/+Suaubh6lB15XdkGt) - FIDONET: A general  
chat/discussion group.


 DSA> Keeping up with my own field is challenging enough. And,
 DSA> for me, my laptop is work only. After my PhD I'm severely
 DSA> allergic to it...even after buying a new one.

So, you find the Telegram interface nice and easy and  
convenient?  Good to have you here and giving it a go when you  
have time.
