(...) I hate to say this, but I've been offered free skiing at Holliday Valley, which is kind of hard to pass up. So, unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to make it. Hopefully there'll be a next time soon. --Bram Bram Lambrecht bram@cwru.edu (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle)

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen, It is once again time for all fans of the brick in the vicinity of Ohio to gather and play! In honor of that "other" event that will also be happening this weekend, I have cristened the event "Lego-Bowl 2001". Event Info: (...)

(...) Agreed. (...) Hmm. Technic might be fun. But I'm not sure what we could do in that vein. Maybe some funky contraption. Better mousetrap sort of thing. I assume directions will be forthcoming. :-) (25 years ago, 18-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle)

The 70's sets would be cool. ;) I've got both the UCS sets here on my entertainment center though, so no need to bring those. I have the silver champion started, but not completely assembled, so you might have to bring that one, as I doubt I'll get (...) (25 years ago, 18-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle)

Sounds good to me. 1 pm on Saturday the 27th. I doubt that my current MOC is going to be completed by then, unfortunately. Maybe I can bring the 70's sets that I just got, if there's interest in seeing them, as well as the UCS sets and the Silver (...) (25 years ago, 18-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle)

Superbowl weekend is good for me. I figure Saturday would be best, so we can extend cleanup to Sunday if needed (which it always seems to....). Around 1:00pm good for everyone? I figure, everyone can eat lunch on their own. I'll supply snacks and (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle)

I'll do it. Since I went to Case, I know my way around there quite well. Besides, it'd be an excuse to visit the campus again :) Troy lives in Garfield Heights, by the way. I know he was more than willing to host, it's just whether or not he can (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle)

But then, where does Troy live? BTW, we should keep (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle)

I'm not interested in football either (I even had to look up the date of the Super Bowl.) That weekend is probably fine for me too. I think I can take the bus to Troy's, but if I take my Diablo and stuff, I may need a ride. Could anyone pass by (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle)

I'd be fine for Super Bowl weekend too. Saturday or Sunday. While a nominal football fan, the Super Bowl doesn't really interest me this year, so i won't be heartbroken if we're deep into building some monstrous contraption at the time. :) Adrian -- (...)

Had a great building session at Adrian's from about 4:00-9:00 today (well, yesterday now, I guess). The results (with mostly Troy's parts): a 7 story monorail.

Allrighty then. It's time for us to finalize plans. We'll meet on Saturday, December 9th, at 2pm. I think the only people who don't know where I live are Jeff K and Bram. Since Bram isn't driving himself, that'll be no problem. Jeff, I'll email you (...) (25 years ago, 6-Dec-00, to lugnet.loc.us.oh, lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle)
