I apologize for the poor etiquette in replying to my own post, but I thought
it would easier then replying to everyone’s message seperately.  So any way,
we seem to have more people then we did when I moved here 2 years ago, which
is definitely a good sign.  The only person I believe who I haven’t met in
person is Scott from Limerick.  It was great seeing Larry again at Brickfest
and meeting Cale for the first time.  I am sorry I missed you Rob, but I am
sure you will agree that there was a lot to do and see, so it is
understandable how we missed one another.

I am not sure if anyone is aware of this, but there is a national attempt to
get AFOLs to meet up at: http://afol.meetup.com/

Besides myself, I see user “{SFA}Theer” who signed up for the meetup.  I am
not sure if “{SFA}Theer” is someone I already mentioned or not, but if
he/she isn’t, how about introducing yourself.

I realize that Tuesday, Aug 13th, may not be a good time for everyone, but
would anybody/everybody be interested in a get together at some other time
in the future?

For everyone’s info, I like all Lego.  I have a few sets from most of the
categories.  I haven’t used mindstorms that much, but the competition at
Brickfest has sparked my interest.  Mostly, I just build whatever strikes me
at the moment.  I will admit that I do tend to lean toward the
sci-fi/fantasy realm more then anything else, but that is just because I am
a sci-fi/fantasy nut overall!

Anyway, to answer some of the questions:

Larry – I have asked myself that same question, but I guess it is the same
reason why the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area is under there too, just not
enough people/interest to warrant its own branch.  Perhaps we will ask to
change it in the future if we can get enough interest?

Scott – If you wish to get together, then you are close enough for me!

Cale – As far as the fountain idea, as I told others, I lay no claim to any
idea as solely mine.  If I did, then I wouldn’t share it and where would the
fun be in that.  So please use the idea and build something new to share
with others and perhaps I will borrow an idea from that :)

Anyway, think all of this over.  If you have any
questions/comments/concerns, please post or send me a private message.  I
would really like to form some kind of get together.  If it turns into a
semi-regular thing or more that would be great, but if it doesn’t, hey at
least we tried.

Keep Building,
   Jim F.

  Roll Call for the Harrisburg Area
 
Ok all you lurkers out there it is time for a roll call. If you don't feel like posting then send me a private message. Basically I am looking for other Lego fans in the area. I know of two and I believe both were at brickfest this past weekend. So (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jul-02, to lugnet.loc.us.pa.phi.har)
