Ok, you asked for it you got it. I created a Chat Room for you to use. It's on the main web site page right next to the "Forum" button or link.
Don't know how good it is, but give it a try.
Also the reason for lack of activity here is due to having a listservice (ZR-1 Net) that is private that ZR-1 owners join so most of them don't use this forum much.
Thanks!
