Rather than spend a silly amount of time deleting the word [Delete], I've left it in. That's where the profile image would be. Thanks for joining in on the chat last night. It was a great conversation and I love everyone's enthusiasm right now. Here's the full-meal deal for the chat on April 20, 2009.

After all of the frustrations with the old chat, today I made the executive decision to move us to something new. It's called
Chatroll and so far, I think, it's working swimmingly.
The chat is now available in the following locations.

Thanks for all who joined in last night and for everyone's patience in finding the chat. I hope with the new box dedicated to Chat on the main page, it helps a bit, but realize it still isn't as intuitive as the old version. There was a request for how to close the box and the answer is to just click again on the words
"My CoolWorks (# members online). They are the keys for everything.
Like I wrote on the main page,
the bottom line is to be responsible for yourself, but we…

Without the ability to copy the chat, this will be more of a summary than a transcript.
We talked about the U.S. Virgin Islands, Florida, Hawai'i, Palmyra Atoll, and Big Sur. Here are a list of some of the links shared on the chat.

Great chat tonight and also a tough one. Health insurance is just plain expensive and a touchy subject because it is a very personal thing. We covered some options, one's personal responsibility and being hopeful that someday, our government might figure something out that really works. The bottom line is that everyone needs it, but what exactly is a tricky thing.
Here are some links I found when Googling health insurance.

I was told by one of my contacts at a large resort in
Alaska that if you want a summer job up there, apply now. Job offers are being made. So if you want to jump on the best job for you
and you want to work for a large company, apply today.
Do note, however, that some of the smaller employers have not begun their hiring in earnest so do keep your eyes open for those opportunities. As we'll discuss next week on the…

Hey All - Sorry for the delay. We had a great chat about the state of Alaska back in December. It's such a wonderful place that leaves an impression whether you're there for a week, a summer or a lifetime. If you haven't been, it's well worth a summer of your life!

Transcript of second half of Yellowstone Chat – 12/15/08 - 9pm Eastern / 6pm Pacific
Unfortunately, I didn't catch the first half like I thought, but hopefully this helps you learn about more about Yellowstone. There was a lot of talk about the employers in Yellowstone - DNC (Delaware North), Xanterra, YPSS, the National Park Service and the Yellowstone Association. Also, taking advantage of volunteer opportunities with the above.
Thanks again to those who showed up to chat. I think that good…
