People can wax poetically all they want about how dumb it was for Chevrolet to
stop making '57 convertibles. There comes a certain point, however, when the
rant, tirade, tiff, eloquently posted and well thought out with corresponding
bullet points expatiation ceases to do any good. And I beleive that we're well
beyond that point.
Show up with some new information and we can continue the discussion. Saying
"TLC was wrong to change the colours, and my not purchasing new sets is the
fallout of said decision" isn't contributing anything that we didn't hear 7
months ago.
All that this snippage, eloquent or not, continues to do is stir up the pot here
and does not contribute one iota to the overturning of TLC's decision. Quite
the contrary, the revisiting of this topic, over and over and over again, not
only causes a 'flame war' on LUGNET each time it is brought up(which doean't
make anyone happy), but, more importantly, embitters representatives from TLC
from hearing future legitimate issues from the AFOL community--"Oh here they go
again...", or, even more worrisome, in the future they won't listen to us at
all.
The issue has been stated. There is no new information. The company, right or
wrong, stayed with their decision. The company has heard the community, and you
may not like what they decided, but, in the end, it's their company. For us, it
is now time to go beyond this and let it rest.
