Huw rocks! So do Todd, Suzanne, and Kevin! No one is hurt or sullied -- just
a small squabble -- we'll all get over it soon enough. Y'all are some of the
stars in the Lego fan firmament...
I know how Huw loves Lego literature, so what he did came as no surprise. He
is a true fan, nothing more or less than that. And I would do another deal
with Huw in a heartbeat. There are none more reliable than Mr. Millington.
I am still finding Suzanne's posts a little "frosty," but she and Todd are THE
most likely suspects for the new thing with TLC. And while I am not certain
of this, I gather she is somehow involved with the Lego side of MIT's Media
Lab -- yes? Her responses to the scan scandal are probably very closely
linked to behind the scenes goings on that we other AFOL may never know
about. If so, I for one am hugely grateful. And if not, her intentions too
are pure-- VERY pure -- so who can fault her for her vehement tone? And as
long as the rules are established up front, no one has room to complain after
that. And that was the whole problem, Huw had nothing to go on -- so he
decided the issue with the heart and mind of a fan -- enthusiastically and
generously!
My respect and admiration to you all,
-- Richard

| I seem to have put the cat amongst the pigeons well and truly. I have deliberately kept quiet on the 2000 scans issue until now, but have been reading the threads with interest. First, let me state that it was never my intention to do anything that (...) (25 years ago, 9-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)
