I'm assuming she was pleased to hear of LEGO in a rather odd place and
pleased to hear that Joseph can participate. (as are many of us I am sure
(1) ) I suspect she overlooked the para you cited rather than endorsed it
per se.
I think your comments probably belong in .debate and I suppose you can argue
that one para referenced perhaps did as well.
Just my opinion.
1 - Piro of www.megatokyo.com related that he had heard that servicemen
could not just browse websites at will. He was working on a way to send them
the strip images because he had gotten several emails telling of servicemen
whose morale was boosed by the strip, was there a way to continue.
I speculate that Joseph is using the email link to LUGNET if this website
prohibition is actually in effect for his service (no idea if it is or not).
It may be quite a bit harder to crosspost or set FUT correctly if you're not
a regular email link user... I know I would have trouble doing it. Doesn't
mean that people shouldn't try but I am gonna cut someone on board a carrier
a bit more slack than I would other people.
