Interesting forums in pipeline

I BEGIN to wonder if some of the people at CompuServe are reading these articles. In my last column I mentioned the fact that there are various forums on CompuServe and now there is a host of them.

Some have already come and gone but there are quite a few interesting ones coming up. (I leave the times as they are given by CompuServe: in Eastern Standard Time, or EST, which is 13 hours behind Hong Kong.) On Thursday at 9 pm EST in the CompuServe Convention Centre (the command to get there is GO CONVENTION), there will be a talk with Greg Louganis, the American four-time gold medal winner in diving.

He will talk to CompuServe members about his autobiography, Breaking the Surface. He will talk about his homosexuality, his fight against AIDS, and his suicide attempts.

Also on Thursday, there will be Robert Fripp, founding member of KING CRIMSON. He will be on-line from 8 to 10 pm EST in the Recording Industry Forum (GO VIRGIN).

With the glitzy and totally superficial Academy Awards coming up you can chose to view it on CompuServe if you cannot stomach the television coverage.

CompuServe coverage begins on Monday March 27 from 9 to 12 pm EST (GO CONVENTION).
