Hi Eric,
Thanks for the compliments. I was anti-CAD for a long time, but decided to
get into it when we were temporarily in an appartment (waiting for our house
to be built). I only had a bit of space for real LEGO, but I got to use as
many parts as desired with the CAD stuff. Now that I have space, I prefer
the real thing, but its sometimes fun to fool with CAD to see what you could
do with unlimited parts.

You mean the power plant? That's still there. Actually, a lot of people
have said they like this, but I've never been that hot on it. In fact, I
had to steal 2 corner black castle walls from it to expand the Emerald
Cathedral. I'm really not sure how this thing got on the greatest hits page
(and not some of my other stuff that I think is much better). To each his
own.

I can't guarantee that I'll be able to make the September meeting because I
have a baby on the way. However, if you are specially in town, then I MIGHT
be able to negotiate with my wife for you (and perhaps a few other folks) to
stop by and see Bricktopia.

Actually, I think this building only holds about 20 people! The Cathedral
of Ice would probably be more suitable.

Sorry - We tend to get things LAST on the west coast. I saw one copy of
that set about two weeks ago and a kid snapped it up. I've not seen it
since then. You will likely see it again before me.
