  Roll Call time?
 
Just curious...Wouldn't it be a good idea to do an Aus roll-call. This could help everyone get an idea of who is in their area, and what their interests in lego are. It could also help with the planning of state based LUGOz groups, by knowing how (...) (25 years ago, 17-May-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

  Studs rule (was Re: What shall we call ourselves??)
 
Guys, Studs is a cackle of a name. I'm always a fan of irony, and just thinking about this still raises a mild smile. (URL) not a fan of three tiers, I get a gutful of that dealing with the various levels of government. Two would seem to be enough, (...) (25 years ago, 16-May-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) Definitely, do you want a name pinned on us from elsewhere. A location identifier in there would help easy recognition by others. (...) Definitely an Australian grouping overall, then divide on state lines due to numbers and distance. It's (...) (25 years ago, 16-May-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: What shall we call ourselves??

  What shall we call ourselves??
 
There are several approaches to this question, some of us are trying to nail down a logo which may (or may not) have a location reference in it. Also since there is now a worldmap with pointers to local groups we might start asking questions like... (...) (25 years ago, 16-May-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
