(...) Hee hee. That's why I wrote "in my mind" -- I know that it really means adults, but in my mind (probably incorrectly) it means 14+. Or 15+ or maybe 16+. Depends, I guess. (...) Well, then you need TFOL (Teenaged Fan of LEGO). :) --Todd (25 years ago, 4-Mar-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) Yeah, but as soon as you're 12 or 13, you have to start paying adult rates for everything. Maybe you could define "adult" as when you start to buy LEGO for yourself instead of waiting for someone to give it to you? Whatever your definition is, (...) (25 years ago, 4-Mar-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) Happy Birthday! I turned 17 on the 27th, so I am also an AFOL, I guess.. Sad thing is I remember the time I came to RTL 2 and a half years ago and what an idiot I was :) So I would go for the definition to be at least 16+, knowing what I was (...) (25 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.general)
