(...) Very nice lot writeup! If every eBay seller did as good a job on their postings as you have, there'd be a lot less reason to hold one's nose while on eBay. It wouldn't address the fixed-time problems or the server issues, but it'd go a long (...) (25 years ago, 29-Sep-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

Just a sneak peak at the new contest. It's not done yet, but I wanted to get some feedback about it before it becomes official. Beware it is kind of big at 100kb for the first page. Check it out and LMKWYT. (URL) J (25 years ago, 29-Sep-99, to lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: Good vs. Evil
 
(...) Yeah, 'little letters' didn't arrive until sometime in the middle ages, in France, I think... This guy must just be new! After all, he's using that 'new' letter 'U' instead of always using 'V'... so he's learning! DaveE (25 years ago, 29-Sep-99, to lugnet.castle)

  CW/CCW, vertex sequence, co-planar, convex, (115kB)  [DAT]
 
Here are 50 messages regarding the above subjects. The first from January 1998 where Leonardo Zide suggested CW/CCW.

  Re: Datsville Construcrtions Steam Roller)
 
I'm honestly not sure which wheels I used. I will have John Neal read off the info on the side of the tire next time he's there, if he would be so kind, or I will, next time I am in Minneapolis, which may not be for a while... But they either were (...) (25 years ago, 29-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) Well, thanxs for the teaser. I'll have to work on it. I've been working on the idea that I need to create a vaccuum in the suction cup, but I can't get the Lego pnuematics to create one. All the pieces work off a two chamber system which (...) (25 years ago, 29-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics)
