LISP which opes a chat window

I have seen LISPS that can send an email, but has anyone seen a LISP that will open a chat window in AutoCAD to chat with someone at your company who is a subject expert similar to the chat function on many websites these days?  Anyone want to create one for pay?

You can't really create a chat system with LISP; for starters, there are many such fully featured commercial programs already available.  It would/should be trivially easy to create a command that calls the appropriate chat application with arguments for who it's contacting.  Less easy is doing so in a manner that doesn't lock that contact name into the code (people leave, get promoted, etc.).
