Okay, so they didn't mention the URL or anything, but this is a HUGE leap of
recognition by TLG of the adult market since they would allow placement of
Lugnet's logo in a Magazine that receives such massive distribution.  Not
only that, but the fact the Lego Maniac, TLG's version of Ronald McDonald,
is showing pursuing such information, will undoubtedly lead many young kids
who read this magazine to ask Mom & Dad exactly what Lugnet is.  This could
lead to a large influx of new people in the online community and
significantly increase the amount of participation in the various
newsgroups.  I am so jazzed!  Fantastic!  Great!  Stupendous!  Superlative!
Yippee!

Yeah, but the same breath I share Todd's and other's concerns about the
flippant use of Todd's property.  For a company that is *so* protective about
its own logo and trade dress, there seems to be a kind of "do as I say, not as
I do" attitude.  But ultimately, I'd bet that such a placement of the LUGNETô
logo was not approved by the higher-ups.
