I'm certainly in favor of keeping the BW in LLCA. Alright, the fact I
happen to live 40 minutes from the park does show bias on my part. But more
important is what the people who own the park think. If BW were held in the
Northwest (for example), do you think LEGO would sponsor it to the same
degree as if were held at LLCA? I certainly don't think so. Knowing they
have people (consumers), adults and kids alike, coming to their park to see
this attraction and other park attractions gives them a reason to do BW'03.
Remember, LEGO is not some non-profit organization, they are a company that
wants to make money (i.e. for-profit).
