Oh no, no, no...you said "'stubby' version" in refering to the minifig
legs...I actually used the all inclusive term "Stubbies©" [1] to indicate
the same, but in an entirely more elegant way.
I also, of course, footnoted "Stubbies©" [1] with an actual copyright
notice, whereas YOU, my friend, simply used 'stubby' as a throw-away term.
You're going to have to face facts, Richard...I will go down in the annals
of LUGNET history as the one who coined the term "Stubbies©" [1] as AFOL
slang to indicate these new, shorter minifig legs, while you will be naught
but a footnote to that glorious history. [2]

I don't recall you stating that "Stubbies©" [1] were going to be used at the
time though...you were talking about "Micros©" [4], by way of mini-minifig
heads...
