Sure.
Lately people have become infected with the idea that LEGO Direct will or won't
like us based on posts in lugnet.lego.direct. They've somehow gotten the idea
that LEGO Direct, as a part of The LEGO Company, will or won't form an

it's detrimental to confuse the two.
And, since apparently I have to say this over and over, none of the above is a
good thing or a bad thing. It simply is.
