YES, YOU SEE MY POINT!!!

(there I go yelling again.  :-P )

Um well what I said was "Yes they took my suggestion but yes they'll never
admit it for legal reasons."  Pretty much I was saying that Lego makes what
they can sell.  I, and many others, suggested a WildWest line.  Lego saw
there was a demand and they took the suggestion.  However, they will never
admit that because it would be a legal nightmare so I understand why!

YES!!!

I sent an idea for WildWest two years before its debuet.  I very strongly
think that Lego took advatage of the kids (me included) who sent this idea
to them.  However, to now play the devil's advocate, thousands of kids
probably did the same thing I did.  If TLG gave credit to any of us, I could
see hundreds of lawsuits for intelectual rights to the idea once the series
become popular - and lots of money would be asked for that really isn't
deserved.  After all, I only said, "give me some cowboys"

Make up your mind, you yell "Yes" and then qualify it by saying, "okay, but
not really."  Personally, I'd count that as a big "No".
