I also got an email from the reporter, but didn't have time to
respond.  Perhaps she tracked down mindstorms users in the Bay Area.

Although I'm not into mindstorms so much, this is interesting - I didn't

Gee, if Mindstorms was so sucessful with adults, shouldn't they
release Mindstorms Jr. for the kids?  Something with one-piece
gear boxes, large pre-constructed frames, and vacuformed storage
