Todd, if you read this:  Good job!  I understand your motives perfectly and
applaud you for taking them.  It had to be a difficult decision and one that
you've probably thought about since LEGO Direct showed up here.

OK, so this makes what - 3 people that *understand* this? Compared to the
vast majority that do not *applaud* this action, hmmm.

I would not go assuming that.  Just because the "vocal majority" does not like
this right now does not mean that only 3 people agree with Todd.  Remember one
of the dynamics of Newsgroups is that people that disagree with a situation are
much more likely to post than people that agree.

That doesn't mean more people argree with Todd then don't but you can't assume
more people disagree with Todd just by the posts you read here.

So that makes this an un-official post and should we disregard it? You have
*no* official capicity here in any way, shape, or form, so that was just a
wast of time, bandwith and whatever you claimed Lego wasted here :)

Eric J.,
Take your pic, they all work. I am still waiting for an apology from you sir.

Mark,

I would suggest droping it and not goad people on.  There have been nasty
things said on both sides of this and it is better to ignore them then to stir
the pot more.  Believe me I know from experiance.  Be constructive and we will
all be better off.
