(...) That * was actually an *ahem* but FTX ate the rest. Sounds harsher without it. Ignore the word 'fans'. Very few non-AFOLs here or in Europe would call them LEGOs. Ergo not even close to 100%. (13 years ago, 12-Mar-12, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) If the author is worried about maximum variation with minimal parts... go play with Silly-Putty. LEGO is not, at the heart, about combinatorics, it's about creations. Perhaps he should do more building and less math. Or, visit a convention (...) (13 years ago, 12-Mar-12, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) A fair point, I suppose, though I maintain that since I was referring to "non AFOLs," I'm not sure that it's relevant. (13 years ago, 12-Mar-12, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Based on an earlier post, I thought I would have another try at custom Lego bricks. Studs are hard. Clutch power is good. Fun to experiment. Someone who shall remain namless thinks this might be a cool way to make old parts no longer made. I (...) (13 years ago, 11-Mar-12, to lugnet.general)

(...) Yep. I don't really understand all the chemistry going on there, but essentially LEGO has a flame retardant in their ABS plastic which contains Bromine-- a naturally yellow/brown color. So, when exposed to UV light (direct or indirect), this (...) (13 years ago, 5-Mar-12, to lugnet.general)
