Jeez, Stephen! Granted my post wasn't positive, but I think you now look the bigger whiner here. In my post I addressed completely legitimate complaints with a product I've loved for decades (and which I feel completely justified in offering an (...) (20 years ago, 12-Jul-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) I thought Stephen's post was humorous. He's got a point: people need to lighten up. I know of a lot of great builders who've gotten fed up with all the complaining that goes on at Lugnet, so much so that they don't read or post often anymore. (...) (20 years ago, 13-Jul-04, to lugnet.general)

Glad to see you have a sense of humor, Stephen! :-) That post just felt a little too specifically aimed and I was not laughing. :-| Let me try this one more time and then I'll shut up for good. I (and we) have watched TLG go up and down in many (...) (20 years ago, 13-Jul-04, to lugnet.general)

I don't have a beef with the click-hinge parts at all as an addition to the Legoverse, but if you look at Purple Dave's post he'll give you some examples of how click-hinges are, in fact, replacing all the old fingered hinged pieces. I don't mind (...) (20 years ago, 14-Jul-04, to lugnet.general)
