You do not represent me! I deeply resent the wording "We, the signatories of this letter, form the group of Adult Fans Of LEGO® (AFOLs)." You and your undersigned do NOT form any such group! You form a small, but regrettably vocal MINORITY of the (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.color, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) I think the estimate is about 5% of sales are due to AFOL consumption, and far fewer than 5% of Lego customers are AFOL's, since AFOL's spend a disproportionate amount on Lego compared to the average consumer. So, if 100% of all AFOLs stopped (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jan-05, to lugnet.color, lugnet.dear-lego)
