“Only the best is good enough.” Which is best, the (supposedly) best
color or the best system? There is a reasonable chance that Mr. Knudstorp
would choose to maintain the integrity of the system.

This seems a very valid argument to me indeed.

And as many here have
said, this one (relatively simple?) act, more than anything else that TLG
could ever possibly do, would show without a doubt that TLG is aware of and
is responsive to the concerns of the AFOL community.

Taking the risk of repeating myself too often, that would be, indeed, the only
necessary but yet sufficient move from TLC that would make me believe that they
are, sincerely, concerned with us.

Let’s do this; let’s write this letter, get some signatures, and get the
letter into Mr. Knudstorp’s hands. Who is willing to help? This may be our
last chance, but it’s in fact a good chance!

I’m with you here Walter. As I understand I’m one of the few that never gave up
thinking that that could be a change back. WHY NOT? As I (and others) have
said before, I think that the AFOL comunity gave up too easily. I can understand
the people who gave up, I have read their arguments (1). Maybe it is true that
fight will lead us nowhere. But how would we know that without trying? Is enough
for us to see a (cough, cough) locked color list with the bleys on it to shut us
up and accept the change as an irreversible fact? Not enough for me for sure.
Of course I will sign for such a letter or petition. Unfortunately I can’t offer
myself to write it, because as you all may have noticed, my english is far from
good.

Help me Obi Wan Kenobi(s) ... you’re our only hope.

May the force be with us ;-)

(1) - Although it is a really shame and it is a very sad thing indeed when those
people don’t seem to try to understand the ones who didn’t gave up the fight
(even if they’re fighting the only way they know), and therefore will call them
whiners, complainers, crybabies, etc (2), without even knowing those persons in
flesh and what do they really stand for in life, and therefore, judging them
by a lousy media for comunication as this written messages are.
(2) See the replies to Matthew’s post. They say a lot, don’t they? People say
(or like to think) that are, you know, tolerant, democratic, respect others
ideas and opinions, etc, etc, but, like sand running off through one’s fingers,
they can’t keep appearences for ever and, in the sudden, expose how democratic,
respectfull, tolerant they really, really, are.
