  Re: LEGO events at Worldcon 2007
 
Comments intermixed below (...) I might be interested in sending stuff(but I'm skittish about this sort of thing, any assurances I could get would be helpful). I'd certainly be interested if I could get some help to get over to Japan! Bryce, Soren, (...) (20 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.us.delvalug, FTX)
 
  Re: Internet access at BF?
 
Replying to my own post, I emailed Sheraton, and they do have wireless access for a fee in the lobby and other areas, the person didn't verify the price, but seems to remember it is $9.95/day. The Business Center has a per minute charge, but they (...) (20 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

As long as it fits on the page it doesn't really mater to me. I think it looks better smaller and I was going to have my bot draw the board for playing with the kids. Derek (...) (20 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) The reason why I think we might want two is because of even versus odd spacing. I can't explain it, I just think an odd line space would make it more difficult. Calum (20 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  Internet access at BF?
 
Does anyone know if there will be Internet access of any type in public areas for BF06?
