One point though - and I think that is a key point here: on page 6 you
mention "posting on AFOLnet". If this comic should help activating the
sleepers, it would be better to mention LUGNET.com instead of a
nonexisting pseudo-site.

I checked, and someone has registered afolnet.com and .org, but the owner's
name isn't shown by whois.  But the date of registration is 26-Feb-2004!

I'm not sure if AFOLNET.xxx was a deliberate choice, or because
AFOL.NET was already taken, but a quick check says that the
registration for AFOL.NET has recently expired:

afol.net

Registrant: <snip for privacy>

Domain Name: AFOL.NET

Administrative Contact, Technical Contact: <snip for privacy>

Record expires on 28-Jan-2004.
Record created on 28-Jan-1999.

(...) I suspect AFOLnet.com was meant to LUGNET.com. Otherwise it should have been AFOL.net, right? (20 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.org)

(...) Since the comics list it as AFOLnet and not AFOL.net, I suspect the intent was for the name AFOLnet.com to parallel LUGNET.com. (20 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.org)
