Good grief, everyone who posted in response to the roll call is:

Greatest Claim to LEGO Fame: being the oldest and femalest person on this
roll call
Other (Non-LEGO) Interests: Bridge (the card game), family history, which
don't really combine well with Lego, although I did see a card dealing
machine on the Mindstorms WWW site.

(...) Age and Gender are concerns only for the census-takers. (...) But not as old as I feel reading 7-12 on a set box. (...) It's great to see a woman who has Technic as a specialty. (...) Maybe you can copy everyone's favourite elements. ;^) (...) (...) (24 years ago, 19-May-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
