   (...) When I try those URLs, I only get a blank webpage. By looking at the page source, I can get the direct URLs to the page images, and those work. And now I'm getting connection resets, so I can't do any more checking. Steve (11 years ago, 10-Jul-13, to lugnet.general)

   (...) I've tried a couple of times over a couple of days. I can never connect. Tried two different browsers, too. Either the site is mostly down, or something is preventing my connection (I'm in Canada, using Shaw as my ISP). (11 years ago, 13-Jul-13, to lugnet.general)

        Re: LEGO Historic Anecdotes... retelling the stories that got lost... —Chris Gray
   (...) I tried those, and got my usual "connection timed out". So then I tried my smart phone. With it using my WiFi I got the same result. With it using my cellular data plan, it got to the site, but failed due to lack of Adobe's Macromedia flash (...) (11 years ago, 15-Jul-13, to lugnet.general)

   (...) Thanks Chris, Very strange! I'm no stranger to Shaw Cable... since I live in metro Detroit, Shaw Cable picks up the Detroit PBS (WTVS) TV station, and broadcasts it across 1000 cities in Canada.
