Brad,
I'm very sorry this happened. It seems that cheap attention is easy to be
had these days. I wish LEGO the best of luck in determining the source of
the forgery on Usenet/rec.toys.lego and hope that it does not discourage the
ongoing efforts at LEGO Direct or look badly upon the community of fans at
large.
All,
To the best of my knowledge, Brad is the Real Thing. Here is some of what I
am able to verify:
1. According to my logs, Brad's most recent post (the one I am replying to)
was posted from the same IP address as when Brad signed up initially for
posting privileges.
2. According to <http://ipindex.dragonstar.net/b/171.html>, Brad's IP
address belongs to The LEGO Group, Denmark (NET-LEGONET).
I think that's all that needs to be said.
--Todd
