Let me know when this is planned :)


BTW, It's probably a good time for a roll-call, to get an idea of how many
people there are around here, where they are from, and where their lego
interest lies. [And to get more postings in the group, and gain on the
Italians :) ] This could also help get some more people to de-lurk, as
they'd know more about the people behind the names that appear in this
group. I'd lead off, but I don't have net access, or the Roll-call form
here, but if some-one either e-mails me a copy, or submits their own
roll-call form, I'll submit it to the group [and the roll-call group, if
any-one can tell me name of it.]
