(...) April and October are pretty much the same. 60 degrees with a high probability of rain. Summer around here generally starts around July and lasts until mid-September. Either way, we're mostly going to be indoors with the bricks, so I don't (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jul-01, to lugnet.events)

(...) Just from the opinions being posted here, there seems to be some favor for either having a regional brickfest in the NW from the locals as well as Canadians. Or a Southern Cal brickfest. ( Sorry Tanya!) Instead of starting big we might be (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jul-01, to lugnet.events)

I DON'T like the idea. If we're going to have BrickFests all over, it would be nice if we can try to get Brad to show at each one (in person, not vidconf), and that won't happen with them happening at once. Besides, I might want to attend a PacNW (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jul-01, to lugnet.events)
