  Re: VicLUG Dead or Alive?
 
(...) It's not holidays for me yet :) (They don't start until September for me). I'm still at sea, I return on Monday. (...) OK- where and when? Thursdays are bad for me, and I am busy on the 9th and 13th. If you have a date in mind, either EMail me (...) (20 years ago, 1-Aug-04, to lugnet.org.ca.viclug, lugnet.loc.ca.bc.vic)
 
  Re: VicLUG Dead or Alive?
 
Thanks for replying! :) As you can see by the delay in my response this is a bad time for all concerned with holidays and summer chaos. I spoke to a guy from the train show and he suggested setting up a static info/recruitment booth was probably a (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jul-04, to lugnet.org.ca.viclug, lugnet.loc.ca.bc.vic)
 
  Re: VicLUG Dead or Alive?
 
(...) Probably C. However, count me out until at least Aug 3 or 4th. After that, I am once again available. If you want to take over organization, I am more than happy to pass the buck (er torch) to you. If there are events, I will try to make it (...)

  VicLUG Dead or Alive?
 
OK, so I would like to meet up with other AFOL's in Victoria and maybe even set up a display at the Model Railroad Show in September. But before I do I need to know which of the following is true: a) VicLUG is dead and if I want to play with the (...) (20 years ago, 18-Jun-04, to lugnet.org.ca.viclug, lugnet.loc.ca.bc.vic)
 
  Star Wars @ Winners (Tillicum)
 
In case anyone actually reads either of these groups. :) I bought a Repblic Gunship @ Winners on Sunday. They still had one left plus the bounty hunter ambush set from Phantom Menace and several technic-style R2's and Darth Vaders.

  Winners @ Tillicum Mall
 
I was @ Winners yesterday and they had several LEGO sets (and a few cheapo brands including a large pirate ship.) I bought the two Jurassic Park III sets or my son for Xmas for less than half list price I think. There was also the Technic-style (...)

  NWBrickcon

  Re: New AFOL in Victoria
 
I certainly understand privacy issues as I work in the IT section at the UVic Library. We have to deal with lots of online privacy issues. Perhaps people would be more comfortable meeting at a coffee shop or restaurant. This would allow a more (...) (21 years ago, 21-Aug-03, to lugnet.loc.ca.bc.vic, lugnet.org.ca.viclug)
 
  Re: New AFOL in Victoria
 
(...) We do have them, the last one was more than a year ago- generally, it is informal, and kind of by invite, because of the fact that it is almost always held at a VICLUG members home, and some of us are more privacy worried than others.

  Re: New AFOL in Victoria
 
(...) I am trying to post this to both so that anyone else who comes along does not miss out. Perhaps the VicLUG (lugnet.org.ca.viclug) group should be for club "business" and loc.bc.ca.vic for more general stuff? But I am getting waaaay ahead of (...)

  Re: New AFOL in Victoria
 
(...) a) Welcome to Lugnet! b) The duplication seems this way for every group, I believe because when Lugnet was first started, a group was made for every geographic location (ie, every city) Then LUGs starting asking for newsgroups--and since it's (...)

  New AFOL in Victoria
 
Hi! I guess I should have looked more. I posted a message to: lugnet.org.ca.viclug which has seen no traffic but mine for months.
