I have no problem setting a date only a week or two in advance, my weekends
are usually pretty open.
I think you've got a good idea on brainstorming on what to do.
Unfortunately I don't have any ideas to throw out at the moment, but I'll
think about it and if I come up with anything I'll be sure to post.
In regards to what we have in common, the feeling I got from the last
meeting was that town was pretty common, except for me, I'm a space kind of
guy. But I do find a lot of the town layouts that people have built very
interesting, its just not the realm to which my imagination flows. But if
everyone would like to focus on town I'm cool with that. I do like the
Res-Q stuff, which is town like. See I guess I do have an interest in town.

Oops almost forgot, no Dave that wasn't too much rambling.
I just thought of an idea for a meeting. We could pick a theme or a concept
ahead of time and everyone could build a MOC to represent that concept and
we could bring our MOCs to the meeting to see what everyone has come up
with. And if you're like me who doesn't have a lot of time in the evenings
to build, the bring a sketch or a description of what the MOC would look
like. Kind of like a mini-building contest. But it wouldn't be a "contest"
where we'd be competing or anything, more of way to see how everyone
interprets the concept. It could even be spread over several meetings to
really allow for a design to be fully realized.
Questions...Comments...Thoughts...Ideas...Etc....Let me know.

| I think this is a great idea. Because LEGO has its train contest, would people have objections to starting with trains? Having Jon at the meetings is a great way to solidify that last missing piece you happen to not have in your collection. As far (...) (24 years ago, 17-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.us.az)
