Not so dear LEGO, This is about the Jack Stone Sets. We have heard that they are a new adventurer series, but is it true?

Dear Lego, Are there any plans to open a Lego Imagination Center in the Seattle area? How 'bout an outlet? Please? We're kind of stranded up here in the Northwest. We got nothin' :^( ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 23-Jan-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)
