Heh.  Yeah, well us locals tend to do our yakking on the NALUG mailing list.
As Steve (Chapple) reminds us, we should do more talking on Lugnet, just so
folks know we exist. :)

I figured I should post something, just so Edmonton gets some representation
during the year 2001 :-)

I don't know if I count though, seeing as I don't actually own any Lego yet.

That's easy to fix. :)

The Mindstorms/RCX stuff looks cool, but too limited for my interests, so I
think I am going to go for some more serious equipment in that area.
However, Lego looks like a great way of allowing me to concentrate on the
electronics, control, and software end of things, and iron out all the
kinks, without having to simultaneously adopt the associated worry of
basically needing a machine shop to make a chassis, do gear reduction, etc,
etc, etc.

You should talk to John Koob or some of our other local technic-types (Jen &
Kyle).  John will quite happily get you hooked on NQC. :)


There are AFOL's in Edmonton, we just hide really well....
