  Re: We're on the itinerary!
 
(...) Here's something neat just a little farther down: -- start -- LEGO Swap & Brag Daily, 9:00 AM -6:00 PM Lower East Parking Lot Details: A LEGO-style swap meet with an eclectic mix of LEGO creations. Here Maniacs can admire the creative (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.org.us.baylug, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
 
  Re: We're on the itinerary!
 
(...) We at the GMLTC will be very sensitive about that issue. When we display the layout at train shows, we are very emphatic when asked (one of the most asked questions, BTW, right behind "how many bricks are there in the layout" and "how long (...)

  Re: We're on the itinerary!
 
(...) Hey, that's kind of interesting from a community-strategic point of view... What you've got there with the signage is an opportunity to let people know -- or at least hint at -- the fact that LDraw is a fan-created and fan-run project/system (...)

  Re: We're on the itinerary!
 
(...) Ya, well said! What I hope we as a community can help LEGO avoid is (to coin a phrase) "fansploitation" -- i.e., taking advantage of or exploiting things that fans did which they wish they'd thought of or done first, since they're getting into (...)

  Re: Weeks Jambalaya Box - round two
 
Paul Sinasohn traded into it, Russell Clark has decided to just wait until Kidvention. Noone else so far (there's some GOOD stuff in here, people, I can't believe people aren't speaking up! I put in a 1255!). Going south around 7/11. (...) -- Tom (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.market.jambalaya)
 
  Re: We're on the itinerary!
 
(...) I'm not terribly concerned about the clarity of the entry. Though yes, it would be nice to have us mentioned by name, its not absolutely necessary, because our events themselves will mention us by name, and so will our literature. Eg, (...)

  Re: We're on the itinerary!
 
(...) I find it disturbing that I can only view this with IE for some reason. I have to clear my Netscape Cache but at the moment I can't view it with Netscape. As to your issue with the text... I guess I agree with you to some extent although I (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.org.us.baylug, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.events, lugnet.trains.org)
 
  Re: We're on the itinerary!
 
(...) I agree with you, but I'm not sure that this would be any more clear to the average person that this isn't Lego-sponsored, without further explanatory text. (24 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.org.us.baylug, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.events, lugnet.trains.org)
 
  Re: We're on the itinerary!
 
(...) Am I the only one who finds this both almost as disturbing as exciting? I realize I'm looking at the page several days after it was originally mentioned, so maybe the text has changed, but the text I see doesn't mention BayLUG or GMLTC or (...)

(...) Did anyone bite? How is it going? When is it going south with you? Chris (24 years ago, 25-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.market.jambalaya)
