Points made in prior messages: (1) "users group" term too techish (2) "Lego" word might be trademark problem I agree with these points. Besides, I think it's reasonable to include other brands of building bricks instead of restricting the discussion (...) (26 years ago, 16-Feb-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

Danger, long post. These are my comments on the Club/Group ideas: Of course they are all my own twisted opinions. ;-) FWIW. (...) I'm not too concerned with the name. baylug is fine. It's probably easier than researching/getting approval from LEGO (...) (26 years ago, 16-Feb-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

(...) While I agree that "users" seems technical, and that Bay Area LEGO Club fits us better, I have to swing towards BALUG.ORG or SFBALUG.ORG. I agree completely with Todd on the trademark issue.

One of the problems with Geocities is the pop-up advertising. You also only get 12 MB of space. I think we might need more than that.
