Within hours, that hard cap was reached, and the survey automatically shut down.
Since it's the weekend, and most of my colleagues aren't easily accessible, I'll
have to check on the actual number that is the hard cap. I know for sure that
it's no less than 500. WOW.

Well.

If nothing else, perhaps this will help get across to TLG the level of passion
that LEGO enthusiasts hold for their hobby. I think it's tough for some in the
company to truly understand that this is far more than just a hobby for a lot of
people (myself included). It's a passion, a lifestyle, an obsession. It goes
beyond mere plastic. It's helped build countless friendships and communities. I
know you get it, Jake, but I don't know how many other TLG staff do.[1]

It looks like we're more plentiful than TLG supposed. And more vocal.

[1] I work at a fairly successful printing company, whose products and services
are widely praised throughout a couple of vertical markets. Being inside and
seeing more of what's wrong than what's right, I often find it difficult to
comprehend how important these services and products are to many people. I've
got a feeling something like that is probably in effect here.
