    Re: So did you wonder about me? —Eric Joslin
   (...) Congratulations! As Larry said, I take it as a good sign that LEGO seems to be hiring lots of AFOLs. (...) We look forward to them! And don't be afraid to drop hints about what you might be working on.... (...) Well, as soon as you get them to (...) (24 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
   
        Re: So did you wonder about me? —Jon Kozan
   (...) It will probably never be tiles. How could you easily remove a misplaced tile in middle of the picture - sure it would look better, but switch to tiles and you are seriously looking at a niche adult market. Tiles should be a bulk product. -Jon (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
   
        Re: So did you wonder about me? —Todd Lehman
     (...) Didn't LEGO say it wants to be the company we want it to be? :-) If we want the mosaics to use tiles and we can convince them that we'll buy more if it is tiles, maybe they'll offer it in tiles as an alternative option. (...) Much, much easier (...) (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

      (...) <snip> (...) To heck with *all* the colors, tell me (us) about that third shade of gray, and in what quantity it will be available and in what other pieces besides plates. Rich -- Have Fun! C-Ya! Legoman34 ***** Legoman34 (Richard W. (...) (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
     
          Re: So did you wonder about me? —John Neal
       (...) Rich, I saw the medium gray this past summer at the Kidvention. Imagine a shade of gray exactly in between the LEGO brick colors light gray and dark gray, and there you have it. -John (...) (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
     
          Re: So did you wonder about me? —John Neal
      *Retraction* I did see the mosaic at the Kidvention, but must have been dazed because the new color *is* lighter than light gray. I couldn't believe that I had remembered something so significant so wrong, so I called Consumer Affairs and asked to (...) (23 years ago, 14-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
    
         Re: So did you wonder about me? —Fredrik Glöckner
     (...) But still, the 1x1 plates can be twisted, making them come off pretty easily. Now, a 2x4 plate, say, on the middle of a large plate, that is difficult to take off. But the worst has to be the 1x1 joystick base. That one is really hard to get (...) (23 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

     (...) One of my thoughts is that the 90 piece bags will actually be bulk packs. I won't be surprised to see them appear as such in the catalog. Frank (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

   (...) Plus, if they are tiles, it sure doesn't look very "Lego"...Just another strange picture! ---...--- Jake McKee Senior Producer - Lego Direct (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
   
        Re: So did you wonder about me? —Gary Istok
    (...) Hey Jake, Congratulations! I'm always happy when AFOLs get employed by TLC. Any idea if TLC will reintroduce any of the classic windows (besides the 1x2x2 that they're selling right now in white)? It is very difficult for AFOL's to build a (...)
