(...) More than it seems, I would guess. Just shipping would be negligable. However, there would be more costs - the production time lost to remove a mold from a molder, and again to re-install it; the lost throughput by taking down a machine to (...) (25 years ago, 27-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Is this true???
 
(...) No shots to fire. :) You posted in the perfect place -- the only thing I'd suggest beyond lugnet.general is crossposting to lugnet.service & lugnet.general, with followups set to one or the other...but it's hardly worth mentioning. --Todd (25 years ago, 27-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)

  RE: RIS1.5 scan
 
(...) Ummmm, Jesper. I think it's OK to post scans of a few pages like you did last week. The art direction for the new Constructopedia is great and your scans helped show that. Posting the whole Constructopedia is probably in contravention of (...) (25 years ago, 27-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Mindfest Questions
 
(...) Absolutely not! I think the fact that all of us so-called adults were wearing our inner child on our sleeves was part of the reason we were able to connect with the actual children on such an equal footing.
