 Dear LEGO / 963
    Re: Enough already —Mike Stanley
   (...) I'm probably in the minority here, but guess what? I don't care. I think what Kevin has done with Brickshelf.com is AWESOME. Utterly and completely AWESOME. I applaud his effort 100%. But you know what? For all the scans I've browsed through (...) (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)
   
        Re: Enough already —Robert M. Dye
     (...) See, this is where you lose me. Completely. The prove it Prove It, PROVE IT! post struck me as amazingly rude. And NOT rude to TLC. To *Todd.* That's who is was being addressed to, no? Todd had taken a stance which he felt (excuse me for (...) (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)

      Dogs shouldn't let friends who are annoyed post annoyed, no? <g> ---...--- (...) "Sturm und drang," I think. Don't have a German distionary, so i can't be sure right now. Rob (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)
     
          Re: Enough already —Mike Stanley
       (...) Don't worry about it. I'm taking one of the Richard's suggestions and making up words when my natural inclination is to include some profanity - no reason you can't as well. (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)
     
          Re: Enough already —David Blomberg
      Sturm und Drang. Cool word choice by Rob, IMHO. You don't need a German dictionary, it's in English dictionaries, synonymous with turmoil. It is literally translated as "Storm and Stress" and it comes from a "German literary movement, characterized (...) (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Enough already —Mike Stanley
     (...) Well, first, *I* didn't write the message you're referring to. I've sometimes quite loudly disagreed with Todd, but I have never been, and don't plan on ever being, rude to him. Second, things DID get a little heated over the last week or two. (...) (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Enough already —Robert M. Dye
     This is my last word in this thread. God grant I'm not tempted to break that. ---...--- (...) So...what...? Since you did not write it, it was not rude? My original post on this topic was not addressed to you. I said, speaking in general to the (...) (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Enough already —Rob Hendrix
      I agree totally with Robert...Which brings me, once again, to point out an address EVERYONE should look at. Todd is, in my opinion, trying the best he can to *follow* the words in this website: (URL) (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Enough already —Larry Pieniazek
      (...) Boy do I hear that. Lucky for you, you don't like to hear yourself talk as much as I do, so the temptation won't be as great... :-) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Enough already —Mike Stanley
     (...) Probably mine as well. (...) I think I see where you're coming from, although your core reasoning here seems to be based on a misunderstanding. Tom was the author of this "prove it" post you're talking about. Todd, however, was not the person (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Enough already —Robert M. Dye
      Um.... "Busing children...?" "Yes, '"busing" children.' Not 'busting,' 'busing.'" "Oh..... "Never mind!" ---...--- Well, then, sorry about all that. I have GOT to find a better way to decipher all these (convoluted) threads. Todd seemed (to me) to (...) (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)

        Re: Enough already —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) Just stepping in to point out that the scans are invaluable to me and I would be impacted by not having them around. At least, I *would* be if I got off my duff and started turning the 200+ pounds of used, unsorted LEGO back into sets again. I (...)

        Re: Enough already —John Neal
    Mike Stanley wrote: <snip> (...) Yeah, I think we got y'all's point. But I think the real point is: legalities aside, TLC didn't want that material distributed around.

        Re: Enough already —Mike Stanley
   (...) You're right. Let's just say that I don't want to be told my access privileges here are revoked if I happen to post a link to a picture that, for whatever reason, wasn't linked to on www.lego.com. That's just one minor thing I could see (...) (25 years ago, 20-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.admin.general)
   
        Re: Enough already —Larry Pieniazek
     Just another minor point here and I'm really just nitpicking so don't sweat it... (...) True. We've had people who said they were designers, people who related experiences working in a model shop, we sometimes have lurkers from various departments (...)
