This may be a dumb question, but will a log of the chat be available later?

I really want to be in on the PPD chat, but I have an unavoidable meeting at that time 70 miles away from my computer I would like to read what's talked about, if it's available.

I am on a veterinary message board, and we have chats with experts periodically. The chats get logged, and people can download them later to read.
