Well, you could always answer "Set K-8"...
I wonder if I would have gotten into LEGO earlier had I seen something
like this. Which issue of the Alumni magazine was the article in? I'll
have to look and see if I still have it.
We had Genericon (the RPI SF con) in West Hall one year (I think that
was the 2nd year of the con - the first year I participated - I laid low
the first year because I was worried they would not make enough money to
cover what the Union fronted them, and that was just a year after the
great steak scandal [which Larry would probably call the big misteak
:-)] where the student government treated themselves to a steak dinner).
If they still do the con, it would be a good venue for Brickwars to keep
Clayorama company (a wargame using Playdough creations).
