TLC would become very, very rich. All of us, meanwhile, would become very,
very poor.

...TLC decided to offer bulk bricks of all the elements previously
manufactured, in any color?

See above.

Would the "Magic" of Lego go away, and with it, the AFOL community?

Probably not. The 'magic' of Lego is not in the collecting aspect (for me, at
least. This post and the opinions expressed herein do not neccesarily reflect
those of Lugnet, its parent company, blah blah blah...). It lies in the open-
endedness of the bricks. If anything, giving us access to more of a good thing
would *increase* the magic. The same goes for the AFOL situation.

What does everyone else think?
