New Chat is Up

Hi all,

The new chatroom is up … but it’s not working quite the way I imagined. I was hoping that it would display on the front page .. but it doesn’t. In order for it to work, someone else has to be logged in to the site, then just visit:

http://gayandlesbiancommunity.com/?a=xdtalk

There will be lots of changes .. you’re visiting at the very, very beginning. We’ll get something up that you can chat with instantly on the front page.

Just … give me some times.

Thanks and Have fun!

Rainbow Cloud

I just had to share this with everyone, in light of the gay pride post and celebrations.

It’s a “fire rainbow”. THE rarest of all naturally occuring atmospheric phenomena.

This particular picture was photographed on the Idaho and Washington borders, and spanned approximately one hour.

In order for the phenomena to occur, the clouds must be cirrus, at least 20k feet in the air, and have just the right amount of ice crystals. The sun has to be precisely placed and hit the clouds at exactly 58 degrees.

Now .. THAT is quite a phenomena.
