*First-time users* : Click on the “Sign Up” button on the blue "Groups" banner at top of screen to create an account. If you are using a mobile device (phone) you may see a "gear" icon instead of the "Sign Up" button ... click on the gear to get to the "Sign Up" item. Put in your preferred email address and choose a password. Your first post (only) will have to be approved by a moderator before it is displayed in the "Messages" list. Existing users click on the Log In button. Once you are logged in, use the "New Topic" button to post a message. If you link into the message board (without logging in), you will be able to see all the messages, but you won't be able to create a new Topic or reply to an existing message. Login first and then you can create topics or reply to messages. If you see the "New Topic" button in the left column, you are already logged in.
