Thanx, Larry!  Bobbled or no this is great info.  That 25% number,

(...) These were sort of asked already. Brad readdressed: Target is non AFOL but they are very aware of us as customers and want to do things where it makes sense. Kids are the primary market though. S@H has been in place to serve kids and familys (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jul-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.events.brickfest)
