Theos-Talk Archives (June 2006 Message tt00133)

I keep trying to get into it, but open to a page that asks "what group am I looking for?"

I wanted to make one quick correction to the schedule, as many guests
have come to the room looking for psychic readings.In the following
message, "Readings," means that members are welcome to read in a
conference setting and perhaps even read to each other in conversation
(since the mic is open for such things), and not that there are people
doing psychic readings in the group.  Though it is true that people
who do readings may show up.

all the best,
Truth Collins
