For the templates below, you'll need to set up a new [http://www.worldtimebuddy.com/ World Time Buddy] appointment for the "see your timezone" link. Go to that site, and:
* http://www.starbase118.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/enterprise-st3-spacedock-150x150.jpg
# Select the date of the chat in the top bar of the box showing the time zones.
* http://www.starbase118.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/conference-150x150.jpg
# Select the appropriate time. We always tie to the San Francisco (Pacific) time zone, so on that line, choose 90 minutes starting at 10am.  
# You should now see an "event" button in the top bar of the box showing the time zones – click that.
# You'll now be on a "Meeting details" page. Click on the orange button titled "Edit title/description" and change it to "UFOP: SB118 - [Month] [Year] chat"
# Click the green "Preview" button, make sure everything looks right, and then click the green "get short link" button.
# Copy the resulting meeting URL, and paste that into your reminders below
