Hey Seabird,
Ken Barber has already told you what I was going to let you know that these "Chats" really are just that, The Chats are verbal and all you really need is a microphone! To be honest there will be a window that the very shy can still type in but most of us prefer to talk and listen.
Just so you know, I really do understand where you are coming from. My hands are probably in better shape than yours, but let's just say that Rheumatoid Arthritis has still done a job! That's why I really love these get togethers... they're kinda "Typing Optional..." LOL
Pleas consider joining us. All you really need to do is listen and have fun. If you have a question don't be afraid to ask. The moderators are really good at making sure everyone gets a chance to participate.
I really hope to "Hear you there!"
