Bryan,
   I'm glad to hear someone in this world still shows some kindness.  I
remember when I was a kid someone did something similar for me.

Let this be a lesson to all of us with profit or collections on our minds.
When you walk into Walmart and see a child oggling the last of a set, one
that you know you could sell for a profit or add to your collection,
remember this and let the set go.  It's not about money, it's not about
personal collections, it's about the joy that the little plastic bricks
bring to adults and children alike.

Anyway, this turned into quite a rant, so congrats if you read this far.  I
lost a good part of my focus once I started actually typing this message,
and I'm sure I'm not being as articulate as I would like to be.  That said,
I hope this message provokes some thought about the purpose of our hobby.
