This is a good place to get in and express yourself!  You must register to use this area.  Your user name on the message boards is NOT the same as registering your profile on the "Classmates" page.  Click on "log-in", chose a user name, and you're IN!!  Message boards posts are immediate,, You can edit your own contributions using some HTML, create new topics, almost like having a blog. 

We're making this up as we go - Message Forums need some focus to minimize the topics at the top level - so send suggestions for how to organize and use these Message Boards.
