How is a morality debate relevant to the UK then? If I read many UK newsgroups
they just don't exist.

Well something has to be done - before the 'invasion' there was no bad feeling,
no flamewars or anything - it was really friendly - then 110 debate posts
appeared with a pointless morality debate although it contained a UK company it
should have gone to off-topic.debate or should a new group be created
lugnet.debate for LEGO Debates.
On a completely different note I think lugnet.loc.eu should be created for
countries of the European Union. This would be for European-wide set releases,
exclusive sets in different countries and especially an European LEGOFest which
I hope can happen before the end of next year (hoping :-) ).
