  Re: Canadian Lurkers
 
Dean, you're not a lurker, neither is Bryan, but that's okay. :) But you were thinking the same thing I was, to draft new people into their local LUG, if they are willing, of course.

(...) Especially seeking Newfoundland lurkers... I'm out here on my own as far as I know. It's a long swim to the nearest AFOLs in Halifax! I wonder if 'province' could be shown in the member pages for us the same way 'state' is for the US? Cheers, (...) (23 years ago, 17-Aug-01, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.loc.ca.nf)

(...) True, but that means you can get a lot of old sets there generally. I know there's still Adventurers (Egypt) on the shelves, and it's not uncommon to still find 6280 Pirate Ships as well. KDJ ___...___ LUGNETer #203, Windsor, Ontario, Canada (23 years ago, 18-Aug-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: Canadian Lurkers
 
Well, I guess it’s my turn… My name is Kim Kates and I've only posted a few times before. I enjoy Lego because I find it to be an intellectualists pursuit of creativity through the exploration of play. I'm also the only AFOL currently located up (...) (23 years ago, 19-Aug-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)
