I'd like to thank Chris for remebering this day. Many of us really wanted
to see the guy in person but just didn't have the chance. Myself and the
rest of the gang of SCLTC are gettting our stuff together for BricksWest 2K2
and I did a little looking back myself. I went through Lugnet's history and
found an old post by Gary.

He wanted to see the creation of a Lego train club here in Southern
California. I hope the creation of SCLTC has helped make that wish come
true.
