How long will it take for the government and others to watch everything we do through these devices? When have we shut down the entire country for viruses?  When have we ever been told to stay at home continuously?  Now, amazingly, an unsecured communication system is available for everybody to communicate upon.

>> Jim, I know lots of folks areusing Zoom, though I have not done so myself.  My opinion is that if we do start having face-to-face meetings or gatherings in person, there will be folks who will not feel comfortable doing so.  So I think we have to either host zoom from a laptop, or continue to have an on-the-air component so the remote folks can stay plugged in to what’s going on.

I've never set one up myself, but they are extremely easy to use as a participant.  Perhaps that's a safe all-weather club meeting option as well for those that "need to see"?
