Hello everyone!

I'm posting to you live from our LDraw and GMLTC train layout display at
Legoland California for the Lego Maniac Kidvention.  We're having a blast here
with the displays talking to people and informing them about the online Lego
community.  Also, we've been seeing a lot of Lugnuts who are not with the
display, who have come to hang out with us! :)  (If I could remember you all,
I'd mention you here).

We're working on getting my Smart Media drive running on one of our display
computers and as soon as I do, I'll post pictures for you all to see.

If you're in the area, come out to meet us!  We're having a blast!! :D
Tomorrow we're going to begin building a model of Jin Sato's MIBO robotic dog,
complimentary from Lego Direct.  We'll be sure to have pictures of that too! :)

That thing is cool!  Do you have instructions or pictures
to build from?

Yes, we have instructions - Jin sent them to me but they can't be
redistributed because of his agreement with the publisher.  They can only be
used for Kidvention.  We'll be sure to update you on the status of the MIBO
project.

Does the term below, 'because of his agreement with the publisher' mean
that Jin is writing a book on the construction of MIBO?  Man, that would be
fantastic.  Can you or anyone else confirm whether a book is being written
on the subject or not?

Thanks,
Jim

Jin is writing a book on Lego Mindstorms for release in Japan, and as far as I
understand, instructions for MIBO are in it.  His site is at:
