Did anyone else notice that the bugs on the front grill of the truck disappeared between San Francisco and Santa Monica? Are they still modifying the exhibit as it travels across the country? Gary GaryLouie@EarthLink.Net (26 years ago, 14-Dec-98, to lugnet.general)

Ok, a coworker was at an antique store, of all places, this weekend and said he saw a late 70's Lego set that resembled the lunar lander module for $40. I wouldn't be interested in this, but I would like to know what it is since I couldn't find (...) (26 years ago, 14-Dec-98, to lugnet.general)
