If other people are like me, they have a box of "not good enough to use
but too good to throw away" lego sitting in a corner. Mine was going to
my daughter's school but they'll never miss it. If anyone else has a box
like this we could pool them and send them off to Selcuk or an address
he gives us. I volunteer to be a collection point for donations like
this if people think it's practical, and I will pay the postage to send
the collected Lego to Turkey. Of course we could also include other toys
too. I'm in Canada so it might work better for Canadians to send stuff
to me and have another collection point in the US.

Since there was very little response to my "collect and ship" offer, I'm just going to mail my own stuff off to Selcuk unless anyone says "stop, I'm sending you stuff!". Kevin (25 years ago, 7-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)

Hi friends, I'm sure most of you have already heard about the disastrous earthquake which caused thousands of death as well as up to half a million people lost everything they owned. I'm participating to the aids and help programs from the beginning (...) (25 years ago, 31-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)
