And that, right there, probably best sums up why you are meeting with so
much disagreement. You believe that without TLC, your hobby ends, despite the
collection of LEGO I assume you must already have, and despite a very
extensive after-market from which to buy more. There is lots around to build
with, to look at, to buy. Your view, to me, is not the mark of a genuine
hobbyist. Maybe if you saw LEGO more from the hobbyist perspective, you
wouldn't be so uptight about TLC's activities, to the point where you've been
arguing ad-nauseum on this topic from flawed footing, and begun tossing barbs
at Mr. Koudys' reputation. At first, you offered disagreement, which is fair
enough, but now you've crossed into disrespect.
