I'm just curious... not trying to sound ungrateful, but I'm just wondering if they've done it again? What I'm referring to is the seemingly repeat performance by LEGO Direct this past Friday (Nov 16, 2001). Here's the posting: (URL) find it (...) (23 years ago, 22-Nov-01, to lugnet.general)

(...) Allan, I think you're being a little unfair. Specifically (URL) to me to be announcements rather than questions requiring responses, and as such, according to the guidelines for .lego.direct, (URL) it was probably a bit rude for so many people (...)

(...) I won't argue with you at all. You're probably right. I guess my question should have been, "Is LEGO at all interested in any sort of two way communication, or will these always just be announcements?" I guess I'm frustrated because in my (...) (23 years ago, 22-Nov-01, to lugnet.general)

(...) I understand and agree with (many of) your concerns, but I think you're wanting Brad to do things he flat out can't. Brad is "the man" with respect to LEGO Direct, but he can't tell other divisions of LEGO what to do, or spend their money, (...) (23 years ago, 22-Nov-01, to lugnet.general)

(...) But as I pointed out in my reply... there were more than one type of "old metal-axle wheelsets" if you go far enough back.

(...) You're totally correct James. I'm not picking on Brad. I didn't mean for my post to come across as a personal attack and it certainly wasn't meant to be.
