Wow! Good to hear from you after all these years. I’ll never forget the
sight of your monster ship packed up in sections and squashed into the
back of your car at Brickfest ;-)
You can still contact me about roller bearings when you want ;-) (note my
email address in the heading is wrong - see my website for the right one)

Glad to have you. Advance welcomes to Oregon. Look me up when you get settled,
I'm in Portland.

Hi, everyone.
Well, I’ve been off the radar for a few years, finishing dissertation,
teaching, and now I’m moving to Eugene in August so I’ll be part of the
“Northwest” bunch and not the “Northeast” so much. I guess this means I can
go annoy Frank Filz more, which I am sure he’s happy about, and that I’ll be
able to go to BrickCon more easily than BrickFest (BrickWorld, etc). In any
case it’d be good to hear from people in the Northwest in general and Oregon
(or Eugene) in particular as to what the community’s like, who I should be in
touch with, what kinds of tomfoolery people get into, and where I can hide an
eighteen-foot battleship.
Otherwise, life is spiffy.

Welcome back, Lindsay!
Between the Truman and
the Yamato, you’ve finally got
some competition! Hope to see another of your big ships one day.

Hi, everyone.
Well, I've been off the radar for a few years, finishing dissertation, teaching,
and now I'm moving to Eugene in August so I'll be part of the "Northwest" bunch
and not the "Northeast" so much. I guess this means I can go annoy Frank Filz
more, which I am sure he's happy about, and that I'll be able to go to BrickCon
more easily than BrickFest (BrickWorld, etc). In any case it'd be good to hear
from people in the Northwest in general and Oregon (or Eugene) in particular as
to what the community's like, who I should be in touch with, what kinds of
tomfoolery people get into, and where I can hide an eighteen-foot battleship.
Otherwise, life is spiffy.

BrickCon 2008 Early Registration is now available at
http://www.brickcon.org/register-yourself
at the special Early Registration price (prices go up starting in August).
BrickCon is an annual adult Lego hobbyist convention and exposition in
Seattle.
BrickCon 2008 will be October 3, 4, and 5, with load-in and some events
starting Thursday, October 2.
The venue this year is the Exhibition Hall at Seattle Center
http://www.seattlecenter.com/booking/detail.asp?VE_VenueNum=510
which is in the same general facility as recent years (Seattle Center) but
much larger and has adjoined, dedicated classrooms and other nifty
features.
The schedule of events for BrickCon 2008 has not been finalized but
currently includes reduced public exposition hours (11am--3pm Saturday and
Sunday) and many of our traditional events (a draft, a Dirty Brickster,
speed builds, a blind build, etc., etc.).
