(...) Well, I'll chime in with a note in favor of Lugnet. It is my portal to the Lego world 99% of the time. Granted, I only use NNTP, but I still find the set search extremely handy.

(...) Thank you Dave. I love LUGNET very, very much. I remember life before LUGNET. It was a pretty lonely LEGO world for me far from any LUG. I'm very concerned at the consideration of the demise of LUGNET. If it were to happen, it would be a huge (...) (19 years ago, 15-Jul-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
