(...) This seems to say that Lugnet is old. In my mind, Lugnet is still one of the more recent LEGO communities. When alt.toys.lego (which came years before rec.toys.lego) became a Usenet newsgroup, it certainly met your definition of a community. (...)

(...) :-) Glad you enjoy the discussion. Thanks for contributing to it - I think it's a good thing to keep going a little bit. I could have just emailed a few friends my original, but then thought, why not post to everyone? Especially when I know (...)

WOW - Great discussion. I just happened to stumble across this discussion and I couldn't resist throwing my ideas into the pot. When talking about any "community" I think it's important to remember that any community can be defined in different (...)

(...) Sorry for replying to myself, but here's a link: (URL) know that purists will balk, but I'm intrigued nonetheless. If I manage to find these sets locally, would a review be out of place in .general or .military? Dave! (22 years ago, 14-Apr-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) Jake, The problem with your definition is that, superficially anyway, it comes very close to excluding people like me.
