I am trying to connect to http://wordsmith.org/chat, but then, following the links for the future chats , always something wrong happens, and I have a a message of error (protection error or something similar). I don't know if it is due to my - archaic - computer or if it is a problem of the links - since the link to the transcript of the past chat works fine. Has anyone similar problems?

In fact, I've just re-checked and it's still working. Unfortunately I don't know enough to say anything helpful about your problem. Perhaps you could give more details about your set-up.

What you said about protection makes me wonder if this is the same mysterious problem that maverick, jmh, and shona had a few weeks ago. Now--be sure and tell us, after you build your unicycle, how long it takes you to learn to ride it while juggling three balls!

I noticed you there at the last one, but if any other regular AWADer was there, they were using a different name. I hope you make it to the David Crystal chat, it should be very interesting. Those who've been here a while will know I refer to his books a lot on matters linguaphilic.

But such a shame we never got to speak to him. I hope Anu manages to re-schedule the chat.

It was nice of him to fill in, and it was a good chat.
