Eric is referring to the more "iron-clad" policy of the worldwide weather 
channel: #weather on the Undernet IRC weather network, when he refers to 
off-topic banter. #weather is a large, frequented channel, and the channel 
manager that took over from me found it necessary in order to keep the channel 
organized to be very careful not to allow channel disruption. However, this 
may attract many folks on this group. As Eric said.. give 

#weather

and 

#meteorology a try, the more weather channels on IRC the merrier.
