Which loc groups are having the most fun???  Send me your favorite URLs :)

I've started a collection of "success stories" to point people to when they
ask what the loc groups are for.  Someday this will be a web page, or maybe
a section in the FAQ.

There isn't any specific messages, but lugnet.loc.us.nc.ral has been
very instrumental in starting to build a local Lego community here.

Local shopping info...
   http://www.lugnet.com/loc/us/nc/ral/?n=49    (Raleigh, NC)

A minor quible with this one, the message is about a store in Charlotte
which is about a 3 hr drive from Raleigh. I'd actually prefer not to see
such far affield posts, its better for people to chose which loc groups
to watch based on their willingness to travel. Now if someone had asked
"is there any place in North Carolina to find Star Wars sets?" in the
Raleigh group, then I would welcome such a post (though it would be best
to wait a little while to give a chance for a more local response).

Of course I've goofed a few times and put posts into the Charlotte group
which may not have belonged there (the problem is that I was thinking
Chapel Hill). I still think we might be better served with
lugnet.loc.us.nc.rtp instead of .dur and .ral.

Followups redirected to lugnet.admin.general ... The Raleigh/Durham area has two local groups, lugnet.loc.us.nc.ral and lugnet.loc.us.nc.dur. This should probably be collapsed into something like lugnet.loc.us.nc.triangle or lugnet.loc.us.nc.rdu. (...) (25 years ago, 6-Aug-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general)
