You're most very welcome Kelly,
Now that the "burden" of the LEGO CD is finished, I can return to posting a lot
of interesting information that I have learned the past few years from others,
as well as from folks in Billund. Luckily, I've never had to sign an NDA!
(Probably because all my research looked back to the past, and not the future!)
:-D
Happy Holidays!
Gary
