One of my roomies had an unfortunate change in plans and won't be able to attend. If you still have not finalized plans for lodging and would be interested in staying at the Crystal Gateway Marriott, please drop me a line. (21 years ago, 2-Aug-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) Sounds like an interesting presentation about your very cool robot. Too bad it's going on the same time as a robot competition. :( I hope there will be other times to see it. Steve (21 years ago, 2-Aug-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)

(...) The AF needs some modification since it only has one gunport, it really needs a 2nd. It also gets a rotating cannon. (...) A BSB is actually Class 7 (or did you mean a RBR, which is Class 6).

(...) We mostly need class 2-4 ships. Larger ships are unlikely to be acquired (though you never know...). As far as minifigs and cannon: I really want to keep these all to one person's collection. It's darned hard to figure out after the fact. (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jul-03, to lugnet.gaming, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.org.glug)

(...) Brian, Anthony Sava and I will arrive at DCA 1:15pm on Thurs. We can share a van ride, perhaps. All three of us + luggage will be a lot.

(...) I may go that way as a last resort, but I sort of have a preference to a cab over the metro since I will be manhandling 2 roll on bags plus a carry-on. Do the DC metro trains have platforms level with the cars? Frank (21 years ago, 31-Jul-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)
