There are 40 sessions(!) this time, so repeats are going to be few and far

(from the presenter's application)
A roundtable discussion of the unique aspects of collecting LEGO sets.
Participants will be invited to discuss their "collectable LEGO" interests and
bring some of their collection to show. Topics shall include but are not limited
to: Collecting specific themes; collecting sets MISB; collecting antique LEGO
vehicles; how large collections are stored and displayed.
