Hey all, I would be willing to take a running jump at the letter. I've already composed one which I've yet to send to the company about this very issue, but it's been sitting on my hard drive collecting dust for a couple of reasons. First of all, I (...) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-04, to lugnet.color)

Greetings, I'd heard of someone walking into a local winners and finding a 10001 Metroliner for $99.99, but I wasn't 100% sure it wasn't an urban legend :). Well, it happened to me today. They only had one out, and the box was in perfect shape. It (...) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.ca)
