		Re: which threads, ethics (was: Re: Mini Auction - 6273 - Rock Island Refuge)
(...) Point taken. A standard auction can turn into a dutch auction if market conditions change. Why is that bad? Those calling for "orderly markets" are usually just about to do something stupid like slap price controls or tariffs or unrealistic (...) (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: Carryon vs. checked (Re: WTB: 6557 (really, really badly) and 6861
(...) I never fly on standby unless it's leisure and I don't care when I get there. But I usually do care, so I never fly on standby. If you don't get on, you get NO compensation. That's why it's called "standby" :-) note that when I am traveling (...) (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: Carryon vs. checked (Re: WTB: 6557 (really, really badly) and 6861
(...) I'm sorry. You weren't listening when I said that any so called "privatization failure" can be explained by analysing and demonstrating why it wasn't really privatization. You proved my point. You have given an example of a replacement of one (...) (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: which threads, ethics vote
(...) Define "within the thread of another", please. Threads are not owned. Therefore, yes to both questions. Now, the first may be a bit cheekier, but it's certainly better than private emails to the bidders making offers. Which is what you might (...) (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: LEGO S@H Canada Specials March 8-12, '99 (update)
(...) These should be posted to both places in my opinion. And thank you! Side note... it is interesting that CA S@H replaces stuff with other stuff when a sell out occurs. (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

		Re: Carryon vs. checked (Re: WTB: 6557 (really, really badly) and 6861
(...) Eventually you will get where you are going. But you will have to wait until there is a flight that has seats available and all the "more senior" standbys have went. Theoretically, with perfect yield management, there never would be seats (...) (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: UNHCR Ad
Cool, This is the second Minifig UNHCR ad, at least, to use minifigs. I have seen a poster of another one... all the figs are different. Tagline (very loosely paraphrased) is "spot the refugee?? he's the 3rd row, 4th one over. Nope! he's the 4th (...) (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.publish)

		Re: Greater Midwest LEGO Train Club (GMLTC)
This is a low structure, fun loving kind of group. I've been hanging with them just about every Thursday for a few weeks now and they're great. I'm happy to say that I built them a 4 bay sanding tower for the new engine service module under (...) (26 years ago, 11-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general)

		Re: Carryon vs. checked (Re: WTB: 6557 (really, really badly) and 6861
Dictionary, Schmictionary. Words mean what I want them to mean. However, if you insist... What was privatized was a food service operation. The customer of that operation was UT. Not you. You're just the captive audience. If you have some budget (...) (26 years ago, 11-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: Packaging
