Well, how true that is. You know, it's just possible that someone out there
might have a Nebula Outpost, (6899) that he got months ago, or even years ago,
that has been just collecting dust in their homes, not because it was
unwanted, but it might have been unneeded by the owner. You could have just
said what I said about the Royal Drawbridge (6078) I've somehow missed out on
getting even one. Someday I'll get a copy of my very own. That someday could
be next week due to the efforts of at least one even keeled, level headed
member of the community. I think it's a karma thing. Good things come those
who do good for others. On that note, hey Frank Filz, you wanted a copy of
those instructions to a Coko Raider, right? I'm gonna scan them right now and
put them up on my web site.
