I have two FTRers on my buddy list: kmind and biondino. They're both very nice and helpful guys and I really enjoy chatting with them whenever I can. I believe they both initiated contact via my operation thread.

kmind mentioned in passing yesterday that he talks to several other FTRers on AIM, and I'm a tad jealous. So rather than randomly IMing people unannounced, I'll just invite you all here to kill your time answering my dumb questions I also use MSN.

The chat room would be a great alternative to get my real-time poker chat fix, but nobody's ever in there.
