| (...) Putting some pressure on me to do that translation huh? I'll get to work. (and for those of you who don't want to wait, here's the write-up from that meeting in Swedish: (URL) and a direct link to the page about the moonbase (Månbas): (URL) ) (...)

|
| Here are my current concerns about the color changes. Note, I define the isssue as 'replacing existing core colors with slightly different colors', so my opinion would be very different about new colors that clearly differ from existing ones. Also (...)

| Hi! Michael Hopkins wrote to me as below. I do admit that I was a bit tired/unpacient and upset at the moment, and did not want to harm anyone. Ma apologioes for that. It is good that people post pictures etc. On the other hand, posting a 1 Mb (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.promo, lugnet.general, lugnet.org.us.baylug, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

| (...) Thank you for requesting our input on this issue. If you can tell us, what is your opinion as an AFOL of the color change - both the colors themselves, and the manner in which the change was handled? (...) Ah, but two months ago, TLC would (...)

| Hello Jake, thank you for this opportunity. I was part of the crowd that was infuriated by the color change. Since the change, however, I have taken an objective approach to evaluate exactly how the new colors (especially light and dark gray) will (...)

| | | | | Re: Nicely now. What do you think of the new colors?
|
| First off, has anyone verified the accuracy of the claimed reason for the color change, i.e. to make the grays more "in line" with the other colors? I know very little about color theory, but naively, I'd say gray is 1/2 white and 1/2 black, or (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

| (...) Firstly, I'll qualify my response by saying I haven't actaully seen the new colours yet. I expect it'll be a few more weeks before the '04 sets reach our shores. My concern is that the change to me seems a bit pointless. The pertinent question (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) I'm not quite sure if this is really the case. In Denmark our VAT (its called MOMS here) have been 25% on all sales, all commodities since before we joined the EEC in 1972, and it still is.

| Hi Jake, I haven't actually seen the new colors yet; my buying has slowed down a lot in the last year or two, mostly driven by other factors rather than less interest. However, the new colors *have* contributed to my not buying any new sets yet this (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX) !
