Nit:  LEGO Direct doesn't sell bulk elements.  LEGO Direct communicates with
consumers.  LEGO Shop At Home sells the bulk elements.

Do you think that they will begin to communicate with consumers about other
things than bulk sales?

Its hard to say right now.  I sure hope so.  I know that right now I'm
preparing to go to the Kidvention at Legoland California to demonstrate LDraw
with a few other CAD enthusiasts, and that TLC is providing a lot for me and
my crew.  This is opening up communication, but we still have to wait and see
to what extent it will be.  No doubt that this will be a fun and amazing
experience, though.  I do think that it will be a while before we as the
serious enthusiast really gets seriously listened to in a genuine fashion, and
we see changes made to reflect our wishes.

WAMALUG's 20% of monthly sales at the Patomac Mills outlet are nothing to be
sneezed at.  TLC should recognize the AFOLs as a formiddable part of their
market, but whether they will and to what extent they will tailor to us is yet
to be seen.
