Hi all! Super-cool, heavy-duty LUGNET t-shirts, like last year's, are going w/me to VA. Read about them here: (URL) year I won't be at the BF registration area. So see me if you'd like one, or two, or three (!) and I'll get them from storage at the (...) (21 years ago, 6-Aug-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

Every year Brad pulls a Steve Jobs and introduces a new product-last BrickFest, he unveiled the James Mathis Santa (...) (21 years ago, 6-Aug-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) So what if your MOC is of interest to Mecha/Technic/Mindstorms fans? Sorry, had to ask the stupid question ;-) (not expecting a serious response :-) (...) Ok, a little late notice, but we'll see ;-) Thanks! -TJ (21 years ago, 6-Aug-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

|

Please forgive my ignorance if this subject has been covered before, but what is the difference (for Technic) between room 246 "Mecha and Technic" and room 331 "Technic"? The current Events schedule lists these rooms. Will room 246 be THE room for (...) (21 years ago, 6-Aug-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) I can second this info. The PA turnpike is shorter, distance-wise. But I-68 is more scenic (read: hilly). I like the scenery, but the hills play havoc with cruise control so I'm not sure I was able to gain any time savings with faster driving. (...) (21 years ago, 6-Aug-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) Adrian, Yahoo Maps show the route at slightly under 40 miles longer, diverging in Fernway, PA, going to Morgantown, VA, and picking up I-68. The real time savings to me is avoiding the PA TPK, and the traffic encountered everytime on it (for (...) (21 years ago, 6-Aug-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) Larry, I use I-79 to get from I-68 to I-70. It runs north-south, just west of Pittsburgh. To be honest, I've never been to Michigan or Cleveland that way; I take it on trips to central Indiana, and I have a friend who uses the route to get to (...)

(...) Hrm. Mapquest.com shows the route down into WV and along I-68 starting from Cleveland is 70 miles longer than taking I-70 straight through. Is it really faster? That's quite impressive if so. Adrian (21 years ago, 6-Aug-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)
