(...) 'When' you do? If you don't expect perfect restraint from yourself, don't expect it from others. The problem with your request is that people will post and respond to posts however they see fit, irrespective of how you may or may not want them (...) (18 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color) !

(...) I don't think it's appropriate, and I try not to do it myself, but IMHO, it's at least understandable. This is the color newsgroup after all. It's going to come up frequently for a LONG time! That post did reflect my feelings quite accurately (...) (18 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color)

(...) And Tan. And all the blues. And Dark Red. And it works fine in Technic models with Yellow, Red, White, etc. Actually, I like the new Aquaraiders sets, and they use a variety of colors with Bley, and nothing really clashes. (I've seen lots of (...) (18 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) Are you sure your eyes are working correctly? The vast majority of the LEGO color palette has a warm tone to it, including "primary" blue, a color which is traditionally supposed to be the far extreme of the cool palette. The bleys have a very (...) (18 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) Hi David, I'd primarily like to request that you take a long look at that post, and consider whether it really reflects your feelings- i.e. you think not dealing with [whatever] and continuing to whine is an appropriate reaction for an Adult (...) (18 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color) !

(...) I like Dark Bley. It's a different-enough color for me to see it. I never really liked the old greys, they always looked yellowed and faded to me. Brown- now, I liked old brown. I have a lot of it, and I feel protective and nostalgic about it (...) (18 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) Hi Tim, You've really summarised the reasons for using bley very well, and I agree with them all - although I would not give them all equal #1 ranking. I guess my main reason is that they are nicer to look at (particularly the new dark grey) (...) (18 years ago, 8-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

Hi all, For everyone who has switched over I'd like to hear your reasons for doing so and stories or examples of why you're happy enough with the colour change to buy bley and use it. My reasons are as follows: Access to the absolutely fabulous new (...) (18 years ago, 8-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX) !!
