May I suggest that you leave an IRC window open overnight, then, read
the backscroll, and simply reply to the channel at a more convenient
time if you see things that need comment?  Time zones do make things
difficult, and people will understand your problem.

Don't worry about that.  Observe the normal politenesses - trying to
avoid treading on toes where possible :-) - and you will be fine.  We
have people from many backgrounds here, and we are used to making
allowances for non-native English.  People will simply ask for
clarification if we don't understand what you are saying.  Relax and the
experience will be more enjoyable :-)
