(...) It kinda doesn't sound like you do. In the above quote they said: 1) they used up their existing supply of Maersk blue pellets. They did. It's true. Other than Jan's comment on the German site (which translated roughly to "this is your last (...) (22 years ago, 22-Dec-04, to lugnet.lego, FTX)

(...) Spin. Stop it. 'They' did no such thing as 'break a promise'.
