Default Bad Astronomy live chat... where you can actually talk!

Wolverine, a regular here at BABB, has created a chatroom on PalTalk. This is a service much like any normal chat, except that, if you have a microphone, you can actually talk to others in the room!

Wolverine annunced this already, but the thread was getting lots of replies, so I decided to post this and make it read-only.

Read the original thread for instructions and more info!

I hope to hear you there!

You're probably right. I certainly can't see it.

I don't think that stickies are supposed to be locked anyway.

Edit: Wait, this is an announcement. Odd...

Interesting. I thought I had Announcements set to read-only. I think I just reset them to that. If no one else can now post here, then I assume I did it correctly. If not, I'll try again.

When the BA says, it's read-only, we believe him. Heretic!

Now that we know that the BA is not infallible, does that mean that he cannot become the next pope? 8-[

Well, right, there may be some other problems as well... And it could have been so good, Pope Baracus I

Well, it sounded so Latin that I couldn't let the opportunity slip by
I can see why he would want to have this read-only though #-o

It appears that only I can make a post an announcement, but anyone can reply to it. Oh well, no big deal.

But since there's nothing more to do about this...

Locked. 8)
