Your LEGO answer was great!  Your "non-conformity" reply hit a special chord.  I
feel the same way (as do thousands of other AFOLs).

What no AFOLs in that "4 people to dinner" category?  (Heh-heh).

No, no!  Q was a fantanstic answer!!{:^D  Great job, Simon!  (I assume you did a
good job on questions 1-9, which were Greek to me;)

Speaking of Q, the episode where Q loses his powers was on last night.  Corbin
Bernson a Q!!  a classic.  But then again, *all* Q episodes are classics{:^D

*Double* kudos to you, Simon!

Congratulations Simon,
