It was a rhetorical question. Present audience excepted, but if the shoe fits, wear it. I'm sorry I got into this. The thing that gets me angry is whingers who reason like "it's so easy, X must be stupid for not doing it." (example: molding parts.) (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

Hey everyone - I didn't take many pictures at Brickfest this weekend, cause I was too busy checking out all the awesome MOCs and chatting with friends old and new.

Great post, Greg. And thanks for all the links! Very informative! Now on to my thoughts... At the first Brickfest, I thought the animation was the best part of the whole thing. Sure, I loved the other stuff, but I was excited by Thomas Foote's (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.animation, lugnet.events.brickfest)

This all comes down to "Wah, I can't have what I want". I wonder, who are the adults and who are the children here? In the light of "promises" from LD that didn't come to pass after several years (massive bulk program), and evidence that LD is not (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

Larry: Nothing personal, but this is the usual TLC/LD apologist stuff, so I will just ignore it generally. 1) Profiteering -- I don't care if they offer it as the official reason for some actions -- it's logically specious.
