This really isn't news. Somebody mentioned this previously. I've been going over there a couple of times a week to check out what people are saying. Some of it is quite interesting. But, I won't post there because you have to make your e-mail address public, and I don't like that. Just my opinion. There's not much activity, just 84 posts, with few replies, as of this morning, since March 8.
I agree with José. It would be nice if they'd update the info about JL. Any positive JL site is wonderful, and I would encourage people to use all of them!
The museum store does have a few videos, but we can find them on our own. I think at one time it had other things for sale, but that was before my time! Most of the clips, etc. haven't worked since the first time I went there in September, 2003.
About the chat room, Lee's probably right, and I can say, "endorsments for book."

According to the archives for the chat room, it hasn't been used since 1998, but maybe it is going to become active again. I hope so for the sake of those who want to use it!

I registered, just to check it out, but I'm really not interested in live chat, here or there. Now, I wish I hadn't registered, because I can't find the archives. Drat! I don't have anything against chat rooms, per se, it's just that they're too confining for me.
Anyway, I started out on the official site and will still visit it as long as it is up. I remember when Scott had his site up, there seemed to be some jealousy (not on Scott's part), but I never did understand that. The more JL sites, the better!!!
It's too late to make a long story short, but this is home base for me, now, and my Telethon night will be spent between here and the television set!
Whatever you decide to do on Telethon night, don't forget to donate if you can!
Boo
Well, Boys and Girls, I goofed! I found the link to the archives. The last time the chat room was active was 1997, not 1998. Sorry for the misinformation.
