Pretty much the scenario I've been saying all along: when it comes to
actually saying the will or won't produce a Lando or Mace, Lego is yellow
(sorry, couldn't resist it <g>). But one thing is pretty obvious: Lego
clearly does not believe that "yellow is neutral". Where it plays out will
be interesting, but the time for a decision has come.

NASA, the Planetary Society *and* JPL. Does this mean I can finally mention

Thanks for the report, Larry.
