Well, why the hell not! There is now a semi-official Glorious Trainwrecks Mumble server. Just download the client and point it at glorioustrainwrecks.com to talk to your fellow wreckers... with your voice!

The Trainwreck potential of this is OFF THE CHARTS. It may be *awesome* (and a new crucial component to the social aspect of this site), it maybe *awful* (and just annoying and impossible to use)... but it will be GLORIOUS in either case!
