Out of curiosity, Brad, is there going to be a press release about LEGO Direct in the near future? It just occurs to me that it would be a very postive thing to have appearing in the press on the heels of the Fortune Magazine award (as well as the (...)

(...) Ummm...Can't we just let Todd do his thing and assume that he knows what he is doing? No offense, Dan, but that was a strange thing to do -- especially in light of the RTL post from (I hope) an imposter. Its one thing to have an honest and (...)

(...) Brad, I'm very sorry this happened. It seems that cheap attention is easy to be had these days. I wish LEGO the best of luck in determining the source of the forgery on Usenet/rec.toys.lego and hope that it does not discourage the ongoing (...)

(...) Hear Hear. (...) The only defence we've got may be just that - some measure of traceability of messages that are posted. As for a)why someone would do this, and b)how it can be prevented, I don't think there are real answers to those questions (...) (25 years ago, 12-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Thanks. I knew what I was doing when posting the message and just thought you should know it can be done (which you probably do). While I did it under good intentions, some else could do it under bad intentions and if it can be done, someone will do (...) (25 years ago, 12-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general)

Obviously you meant well but this is an extremely important rule not to violate. To repeat from the discussion group T&C, (...) (25 years ago, 12-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general)

(...) Lego DOES have an email address. I have it and have sent them email. They just don't give it out because they don't want to be flooded with email from people who want to buy 2 purple 2x2 tiles or something else. (...) I don't think you really (...)

If this idiot from Mediaone.net was a little smarter, he could have faked Brad Justus's post even here as I just did: (URL) please delete the above message.

In response to myself: I WAS WRONG. LEGODIRECT AND BRAD JUSTUS (The legitimate one) DO EXIST. Just wanted to help clear this up. The hoax is the retraction posted to RTL, not the posts to Lugnet from Brad Justus. Note: I will not be deleting my (...) (25 years ago, 12-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general)
