 (Might even use less energy than an electric dryer.  One reason why I am so glad to live in Texas - gas-fired dryers and water heaters are very much so a viable option here.  They cost a lot less to operate, even with the price hikes in natural gas.)
 
Sadly, it's been pouring cats and dogs most of the last few days -- that nor'easter I mentioned elsewhere and its side effects have been hanging around -- so even if we had a dehumidifier, which we don't, it would probably expire from the heavy lifting.  We have a repair guy coming tomorrow, and from the research Peg and I did, the problem appears to be a simple one to fix, so we hopefully won't have to wait longer.

		Do we have anything to talk about this week?
 Or just talk, if Labster wants to try connecting?

		I can make it this week, assuming I get dinner supplied and prepared early enough.

		Even if there's nothing pressing, just talking would be cool.  We've already established that MS Teams for Home allows voice chats for longer than an hour.

		Next question: Is 7:30pm Eastern / 6:30pm Central / 4:30pm Pacific a good time for everybody? That's what we scheduled last week.

Update... I have errands to run at four different locations immediately after 5 PM.  If events allow I will join tonight, but don't depend on me being there.

		I should be able to manage it.  I've already let my brothers know that I won't be available at that time.

		I'm not available this week - I have five days of work to squeeze into three working days.

		Ouch.
 Well, if anyone else wants to, I can be online and available.  I just need to know when in advance.

Further notice.
 
As discussed in last week's chat and confirmed with one writer who wasn't in attendance, we're moving the weekly chats to 7-9pm Eastern on Wednesdays .
