New gem chats

[Harper]

Thanks!

I'll really miss getting those weekly boxes of gems to ID. Frank I'll stay hopeful that you admins might implement the Traveling Stones program again someday... hint hint wink wink... although I'm sure the logistics behind it were a nightmare and no one has time.

Last night was the last chat until after the holidays.

Hope you all have a nice festive season and we will reconvene in January

be well

Hi to everybody! When will the next chat take place then? I apologize I wasn't present at the previous ones. in September I was travelling to Idar-Oberstein in order to attend to my updating courses of gemology at the DGemG!
I hope I will be there at the next chat, subjects are always interesting!

Hi Riccardo,

The chats will start again this coming Sunday (13th) at 21;30hrs central european time. The subject will be refraction of light.

Hope to see you there.

I tried to set my computer to central European time but could not find it listed. Does anybody else know what time that may be in another time zone? Best regards, Lee

Try tis one:

should do the trick

[Lee Little]

That is a cool tool but I still don't know what city to set it at since none are listed as central Europe and Americans don't know crap about geography. Another clue?

[Alberto]

Rome, Paris, Berlin, Zurich, Bruxelles, Madrid, Oslo and many others..............guess you have enough to try........

[Lee Little]

Thanks Alberto, that worked!
However, that is 3:30 in the morning here and I will very likely be asleep. Have a good one, Lee

There will be no chats for the next two weeks. Sorry but I'm out of the country and out of internet range. Chats will resume on the 10th of March with a chat concerning geological occurence of gemstones

Hope to see you all then

Frank

PS I don't really expect you all to show up...past experience shows that only the regular few will turn up.

best regards

Frank

Hi All,

Sorry but I've got the flu and won't be at the chat room tonight ...sorry

[Frank]

Hi all,

No one at all has turned up for four weeks now. The chats will be discontinued until some time in the future.

Hi to everybody!
it's a pity I wasn't punctual at the last chat, I hope I can be there next time! If you have fixed a date already, please let me know!
