That reminds of the story of Tom Clancy. After releasing one of his books
(the Hunt for Red October I think), the U.S. Navy started investigating him
for military leaks. Seem that they felt he knew too much about their subs.
Then he showed him all the books he researched through at the local library
where he got his info.
Similarly, I'm just another Lego maniac like you guys. I'm really
interested in what they do, and try to keep my ears and eyes open. As for
talking to Brad, I got that honor at the last LUGOLA meeting. I asked him
what questions I had on my mind, and I don't think any of his answers were
confidental, at least not anything I've posted about.
