ChurchillChat is a free listserv that allows members and non-members alike to share their enthusiasm about Winston Churchill over the internet in an interactive exchange of information and ideas.  To subscribe, simply click on ChurchillChat.

ChurchillChat is maintained on the Google.com website.  Access to group messages may be made from any web browser, anywhere.  From the web page, members can post and reply to messages, and all group messages are archived on the web page, threaded by topic.  Archived messages can be searched by keyword.  ChurchillChat members can manage their subscription from the web page too: change to digest mode, stop receiving emails without dropping your group membership, or unsubscribe entirely.  You can also add a profile that can be accessed by other group members.

The Churchill Centre believes in maximum freedom on broad subjects. We therefore take the liberty of informing the membership of the Rules, which are patterned after and, in the cases of Rules 8-12, identical to the Rules of The Other Club, founded by Winston Churchill and F. E. Smith in 1911:
