Yea, I've been sent that link a few times myself and had a neighbor describe
the church also (though that neighbor was also using Bricklink before I
shared that I was into LEGO).

I have actually not yet had anyone react badly (even cashiers in the store
when I explain why I'm purchasing a bunch of sets), though I still tend to
be private about my hobby interests (except for model railroading and
caving).

(...) ... and 50% of the time, it's a link to Amy Hughes' church. Well, except for one guy who sends me fresh and new content. Steve (18 years ago, 16-Sep-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)
