  Re: Next NELUG meeting and potential Group project(s).
 
Hi Folks, First of all, I'm gonna come right out and embarrass myself, 'cause that's what I'm good at. Can anybody fill me in on what the MIT LEGO Mindfest event is? I was under the assumption that it was all robotics/RCX, but now I'm not so sure (...)

(...) I should also mention while I'm on the subject that I'm also using the Walpole definition of "sparse", not the Cambridge one. (25 years ago, 14-Sep-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos, lugnet.loc.us.ct, lugnet.loc.us.me, lugnet.loc.us.vt, lugnet.loc.us.nh, lugnet.loc.us.ri)
 
  Re: Next NELUG meeting and potential Group project(s).
 
(...) I'm probably a mile or two from the rail station (it's on the Franklin line). I could plan to meet people at a train if you know which one you'll be on or if you want to call my house when you get in. Your best bet is by car, though, since the (...)

(...) How close are you to the commuter rail? Or, alternately, anyone want to share a car ride from Harvard or Kenmore Square? (25 years ago, 14-Sep-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos, lugnet.loc.us.ct, lugnet.loc.us.me, lugnet.loc.us.vt, lugnet.loc.us.nh, lugnet.loc.us.ri)
 
  Re: Next NELUG meeting and potential Group project(s).
 
(...) I've got two RCXes that I could extract from their current hosts to be used in a project like this. I'd also like to offer up my humble abode for the next (or any) NELUG meeting. I live in Walpole, which is south-west of Boston. (About halfway (...)

  Re: Next NELUG meeting and potential Group project(s).
 
(...) How many RCXs do we have between us all? It might be fun to create some sort of large group-behavior system. (I've got one; my friend paul has another that I might be able to borrow even if he's not coming.)

  Re: Lego from Italy
 
In addition to what Mario has listed in the previous messages, I have found a few other sets that may be of some interest to you. I can bring some of them with me at the MindFest, so you can save shipping costs. 4559 Cargo Railway - $110 6769 Fort (...) (25 years ago, 12-Sep-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)

Hello NELUG, 1) I just finished my survey at the local shops. You may look/download the list at: (URL) read my notes. 2) I can also order items for you at this online store: (URL) prices aren't bad IMO (at least from an European perspective). Prices (...)

  Re: Some older somewhat hard to find sets found in Revere MA
 
That reminds me. There are a couple of toy stores in Winchester, MA. I only had time to go in one, and found a couple interesting sets (I forget which ones). Also, there is an old toy store in Lynn right off the main drag at 129(A?). It's like a (...) (25 years ago, 6-Sep-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos, lugnet.loc.us.ma)
