I know there is a distinction between the dear-lego and lego.direct groups, but that distinction is a fine one, and it's probably something that a lot of people are confused by. The dear-lego group would have made a lot of sense when TLC wasn't (...) (24 years ago, 17-Mar-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

(...) I agree Eric. Recently I put a post about the lack of Blue 1 x 6 and 1 x 8 bricks available from Bulk sales at S@H, and some AFOL took the opportunity to promote his Brickbay page. I just hope that LEGO realizes I cannot order from this (...) (24 years ago, 17-Mar-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

(...) I use NNTP at school, in fact, I have Outlook Newsreader open now, but something never works right so it downloads new headers automagically.
