Could it be you just lack .. dedication? Changing the color palette is no minor
thing. It opens a can of worms. It is outrageous and a sound reason for becoming
emotional. If youre really dedicated, that is. If you dont feel that way, you
probably havent spent enough time with your hobby, with sorting and storing
parts and creating models. Im still feeling like Ive been knocked over by THE
LEGO GROUP (damn them). But at least YOU can feel soo civilized by just saying
*ouch* well thank you dear LEGO ... and walking away.

I dont think so.

I dare say that I have spent more hours sorting, more hours creating MOCs,
created more MOCs, and spent more money on LEGO than 99% of AFOLs. Dedication
is not the issue. Perspective is.

It would take TLCs going out of business for me to react as you are.

Excellent! Now were getting to the core of it. For me (and many others it
appears) it IS like TLC going out of business, or rather putting me into severe
danger of entering a new Dark Age due to disappointment followed by lack of
interest. Which is basically the same to me, but I suppose the keyword again is
perspective :/

Burkhard, what is it that makes you dedicated but John not? That he is willing
to play well with new colors and you arent? I just dont get it. Real life
doesnt come in 3 shades of gray. The new colors will simply be another
opportunity for creativity.

Ahem. Only TLC going out of business is like TLC going out of business:-)

If something like a color palette change threatens to cast you into a Dark Age,
then I must ask, Where is your dedication?
We will survive this tragedy together, Burkhard!
