This raises an interesting question. We have people from all over the world on
this newsgroup and not one works for Lego? I know I'm on the net all the time
to see whats going on in my field. Isn't it hard to believe that not one
employee with info. reads this newsgroup? And if so, why is it so hush hush?
These are toys for crying out loud, not cold war secrets! We're consumers with
money... cut us a break here!
Man I'm getting edgy... every year around this time.
Your pal,
Felix
