[Schulman, Lori]

As I am a Skype neophyte, how does one access a conference call through
Skype?

Agreed.  We'll have to use skype until there is a foss option that can 
do the job.   Skype's unlimited world-wide free voice conference calls 
are hard to resist.   I don't think it will be long before there will be

a foss competitor.
