 | | Meeting!
|
| Just to keep LUGNET readers up to date (for those of you not on the mailing list)... Talk is currently brewing for another NELUG meeting in the next couple of weeks, it looks like the date is going to be Thursday, December 16th! (but that's by no (...)

| | | | | Re: Reminder
|
| (...) Hi Ryan, I didn't notice this message, but I was in the Construction Site too at the same day. I talked to Eric K. and Dave E. after you left. I assume you saw me, or maybe it was Shuan S., because one of you were there, and left. -Shiri (25 years ago, 27-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)
| | | | | Re: Lets pick a date for our next NELUG meeting.
|
| (...) Well, I'm not a NELUG member but I would like to be (reminder, I'm 15 and a half). I think that if there aren't too many people objecting, you could have a trail "with <18 members" meeting. I think that's not too much to ask. If you meet me (...)

| | | | | Lets pick a date for our next NELUG meeting.
|
| I talked with Shaun Sullivan today and although he is working on setting up a Brick Wars meeting he is currently working on studying for his finals and won't be ready for a while. I have talked to a couple other members and they would like to get (...)

| | | | | CFD: Subgroups for lugnet.org.us & lugnet.trains.org
|
| Watching the recent discussions in lugnet.org and lugnet.org.us has been a lot of fun. The groups are serving their purpose well as venues for sharing ideas on formation and nurturing of regional user groups/clubs. But I think there is still much (...)

| | | | | Reminder
|
| Since I said I'd post a reminder, here it is. I'm going to be at the Construction Site around 10 or half past tomorrow morning. According to Eric K., he, Dave E., and Shaun S. are planning on being there. See you guys tomorrow. :-) Ryan (25 years ago, 19-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)

|
| Shiri, First let me say welcome to the Boston area. (...) This is just the type of thing I hope we can help you avoid. Now while it is true most/many teenagers eventually lose their interest in LEGO and as a result people like you and Ryan are (...)

|
| Dear NELUGers, I've been reading this thread, and I would like to know this: Like Ryan, I'm 2 and a half years below the 18 line. I've had a short dark age, but luckily came to my senses quickly. I must comment that in Israel, where I used to live, (...) (25 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.us.me, lugnet.org.us, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)

|
| (...) <soapbox> I'm going to jump on the use of "Young Adult" here since I am battling the use of the term "Young Adult" in church circles. The term "Young Adult" is used by sociology to refer to people aged 18-35. Since there are areas where it is (...) (25 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.us.me, lugnet.org.us, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)
| | | | | Re: Minors in LUGs (Re: NELUG Turns 50!!)
|
| (...) Well, again, check your local laws, but I'm darn near postive that they won't be any different on the major point - which is to say if NELUG doesn't legally exist, NELUG can't be legally liable. The individuals involved can be legally liable, (...) (25 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.us.me, lugnet.org.us, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)

|
| (...) Again I think you are right. As far as events like Mindfest etc. I would think it would be more of a "come see our exhibit" type thing then a "be part of NELUG and display your creations". First of all if it were something like Mindfest where (...) (25 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.us.me, lugnet.org.us, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)

|
| (...) How do you mean? Do you mean participate as in attend the event and see our models, talk to and meet us, and so on, or do you mean participate as in bring models of their own and be there as a part of NELUG? The former isn't a problem, at that (...) (25 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.us.me, lugnet.org.us, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)

So, let me see if I'm following you here: Because there's a slight chance it might happen if we keep things 18+, we should open ourselves up a situation in which it's more likely to happen?

To answer your question I guess I don't know how we would handle that type of situation mostly because it has not even been close to an issue (...)

|
| <snip> (...) Eric J, I agree with everything you have said here. I really want to keep this from having to be a "judgement call" of any kind. I also agree that to have <18 folks at the types of meetings we have had so far is probably not in the best (...) (25 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.us.me, lugnet.org.us, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)
