-NEWS- 24 JAN 07 You can relate your own information on IRC trivia to me [Ezra_Rome in the GAMES! Let them begin!] at Ask The Admin. But this is a fantastically better trivia game channel than most (not so easy as "teej123") with well seasoned playing attitudes. It does not need "good enough answer" features; far, far better than what we had been recommending; and which server, network, and channel we no longer use (that Italian one that couldn't decide what City-named server they were on [read: obfuscation]) nor do we recommend you bother. Femme fatale person there was rather not too genuine in our view. And too much come-on look at my "site" demimonde salaciousness queen wannabe intrusive pop-up arrogance, in our well-informed opinion.
Nota Bene: You can use the freejavachat.com Java Conferencing Utility (as we think of it in the Igloo) to form your own personal, private, or group rooms. Use a real email address -- but no registration is required -- none -- you can start right in on any IRC channel if you know the address, the server and the #room.
You may want to Google to "find 'IRC channels'" in your area of interest, then bring the address back here. I'll post more NickServ commands for noobies. The server owners have never, to my knowledge or experience, given out or sold any personal data. Nobody has ever bothered my email address that I could trace to these folks. Please email us, as well, if you know a great trivia or word-jumble IRC channel. Or post a new forum topic at Candelabra Barricade, our CMS portal in formation.
The Java IRC client below is good for (legal) meetings, etc... We/They have a Clean Use Policy. For windows, I would suggest looking into downloading a non-Java client, 'KVIrc', say -- it's my favorite when I can't use Linux's BitchX. KVIrc is superb, easy self-installing, and free (open source). Google will find it for you.

Ultimately the case against ethics can be answered only
by demonstrating how moral problems are amenable to so-
lution by rational methods.  In any particular case the
right course of action is the one that is backed by the
best reasons.               James Rachels

       pleonasm \PLEE-uh-naz-uhm\, noun:
       1. The  use  of  more  words than are necessary to express an
          idea; as, "I saw it with my own eyes."
       2. An instance or example of pleonasm.
       3. A superfluous word or expression.

       Dougan  uses  many words where few would do, as if pleonasm
       were  a  way  of  wringing  every  possibility  out  of the
       material  he  has,  and  stretching  sentences  a  form  of
       spreading the word.
       --Paula  Cocozza,  "Book  review:  How Dynamo Kiev beat the
       Luftwaffe," [1]Independent, March 2, 2001

       Such  a  phrase from President Nixon's era, much favored by
       politicians,  is "at this moment in time." Presumably these
       five  words  mean "now." That pleonasm probably does little
       harm except, perhaps, to the reputation of the speaker.
       --Eoin McKiernan, "Last Word: Special Relationships," Irish
       America, August 31, 1994
       _________________________________________________________
       Pleonasm  is  from  Greek  pleonasmos,  from  pleon, "greater,
       more."

       Synonyms:  circumlocution, periphrasis, redundancy, tautology.
