Greetings Everyone!

Just wanted to remind y'all that our next RichLUG meeting is this coming
Saturday, 6/29/02 Noon-5 p.m. at the Tuckahoe Library.  The large meeting
room downstairs is reserved for us.  I plan to be there from Noon
on...Remember though, YOU don't have to stay there all day - stop by, say
"howdy" and stay as long or as little as you like.

Tim will be bringing the completed State Capitol Building to show off and so
we can take some pictures for BrickShelf.

I'm planning on bringing my collection of the new Monster Studios sets.  I
want to let other folks check out the built sets before I start tearing them
down for parts.

I've also built a new car for the Ghostline Express train.  I've constructed
a Pumpkin Coach using bricks in the medium-yellow orange color.  I'm going
to bring the whole train. I'll also bring track/power so we can run trains
(bring yours if you want).

Don't know if this next idea will go over but I'm also thinking about
bringing a MegaBloks set for us to check out.  I stumbled across a huge MB
space port set in my attic the other day that a co-worker had foisted on me
last year (her son is "too old" for them).  I initially tried to tell her
that MegaBlocks are not the same as LEGO but it wasn't getting through so I
just graciously accepted the set.

I thought at some point I might be able to animate some kind of LEGO vs.
MegaBloks Space Battle.  So far, I've never even opened the box to check out
the pieces so I thought it might be interesting to see what's actually in
there.  Personally, I've never had a chance to look over a whole MB set
(only random pieces that show up in purchases) so I'm interested in what
I'll find.

I'll understand if others would rather not participate.

Also at the meeting, I'll have a chance to show off my new brickmation video
that I created primarily to show at BrickFest. I made a video for the song
"The Mollusk" by the group Ween.

Plus we'll be starting to make plans for the September train show and
finalizing BrickFest plans for those of us who will be attending.  We'll
probably also be trying to talk to the library staff about plans for a
Display and LEGO Day in November.

Hope to see some of y'all at the meeting.  For information on directions to
the library visit www.richlug.org.

Greg
