I'm working on a new chat system that will work better. I will also work out a discussion schedule with more specific topic focus. A suggestion has been made to organize into teams around specific topics of interest to develop thoughtful, consensus ideas on how to move the country forward on these issues. We will work on how to organize for the best result and will likely post some polls to get feedback on how to proceed.
Updates will be emailed to you so you can plan to participate. Thanks again for your support and kind words.

System Crashed due to Chat Load! Saturday, 13 March 2010 22:29 | Author: Kevin Kwilinski |
The website is up but sans Chat. I'm guessing I will get a nasty-gram from my website host. The information shared on topic interest and contacts will be shared with the national folks so that we can better organize future events. You have all renewed my confidence in America! Stay involved and work for compromise. I'll communicate more information as I have it. Incredible Response Update! Saturday, 13 March 2010 21:31 | Author: Kevin Kwilinski |
I'm letting some more folks register but I have no idea how many will actually get to join the discussion. I woke up this morning and found out about the Coffee Party Movement and I immediately knew that this was for me! When I looked for a local meeting and didn't find any at the right time in the right place for me to attend, I thought, "Why not setup an online discussion?" A couple of hours later I had it setup and started to post invitations. The people at the national Coffee Party website saw my effort and asked if they could help me out by posting the information nationally. They did, and I am overwhelmed by the response. I'm just a regular guy who wants to see our government work again. Regardless of my personal beliefs, we must find compromise to tackle the tough road ahead. I have four sons and I want them to have a bright future. We will figure out how to get this type of online meeting organized to handle the level of interest. Thank you very much for being patient. I am moved beyond words by the interest of regular people who want to make a difference. You have given me new hope for the future! Thank you. Last Updated ( Saturday, 13 March 2010 21:40 ) |
Registration Suspended Due to OVERWHELMING Response! Saturday, 13 March 2010 20:56 | Author: Kevin Kwilinski |
Wow! When the word was put out nationally, I had several hundred register in a short period of time! I had to suspend registration. I will try to allow all those registered into the chat but I may have to use some type of lottery to limit participation. Whether you get to chat or not, the fact that you showed this level of interest will certainly be recognized. Thank you for helping. Inaugural Chat Today at 4:00pm Central Time!
