Something else you might try is the local bbs called The Gate....it is game 
oriented, but it has become quite the little community, kinda like an 
electronic Cheers.  We have parties and bbq's every so often, and the members 
get to meet each other.  Call 223-0159 with your terminal program, and if you 
need any help, ask for Mongoose, Digger, or me, Gaboon Viper...

Good Luck!
