  Request for opinions on additional nelug.org functionality and LUGNET posting procedures
 
If you have an opinion on either of the following two points I would like to hear them. 1. I have been thinking of adding a "Trading Post" to www.nelug.org. This area would be used for people to post pieces that they are looking for as well as (...)

  Re: Next NELUG meeting and potential Group project(s).
 
(...) You are correct in the the MIT Mindfest is primarily for RCX/Mindstorms but in talking with Suzanne at the last NELUG meeting she mentioned that we could do almost anything LEGO related we wanted. Some main reason for this, as I understand it, (...)

  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'm probably a mile or two from the rail station (it's on the Franklin line).

(...) 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.

  NELUG Update
 
Just thought I would give a quick update. We had our second meeting on August 31st at my house and we had 5 attendies.

  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 (...) (27 years ago, 6-Sep-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos, lugnet.loc.us.ma)
 
  Re: Some older somewhat hard to find sets found in Revere MA
 
(...) Oh yeah -- that reminds me. Karen and I were in Concord last weekend, and the Toy Shop there has a lot of Lego (less than the Construction Site, of course, but still good). And they had a few pirates sets -- no boats or anything really cool. (...) (27 years ago, 3-Sep-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos, lugnet.loc.us.ma)

  Looking for Member Sites for NELUG
 
I have started a Member Site page on NELUG and I only had a few URL's for some member sites. I know some of you have your own sites and will look around for URL's when I get time but if you want to submit them to me I will get them up faster. I had (...)

  Next NELUG meeting and an E-mail Issue.
 
I wanted to let you all know I am having a problem sending E-mails out to all of you. It seems that when I include you all on an E-mail the pair mail router is interpreting it as SPAM. Of course it is not SPAM but I have a couple of Ideas for a (...) (27 years ago, 17-Aug-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos, lugnet.loc.us.ct, lugnet.loc.us.nh, lugnet.loc.us.ri)

I did do some testing but obviously not enough. I was in a bit of a hurry because it was my wife's birthday and I was a bit frazled.
