Thanks Tom!!!
I just wish that our European and Australian folks would all have gotten theirs
as quickly, but as you know it takes longer to get there.
I know that you haven't had time to go thru the whole thing.... IT'S 1,265
PAGES!!!!!!!!! :-D (laughing out loud)
This LEGO CD has been the most challenging thing I have done in my entire life
(all 53 years!). I now realize why no one has done it before!! :) I now
realize that the most complex collectibles of all time are 1) Stamps, 2) Coins,
3) LEGO (in no particular order).
I could not have completed it without some really wonderful support... from the
folks in the Billund Archives (Kirsten Stadelhofer), to many very helpful and
knowledgeable AFOLs worldwide.... such as Eric Strand (Texas), Clark Stephens
(California), Jim Hughes (Ohio), Dave Shifflett (California), Kurt Richter and
Ben Beneke (Germany), Manuel Cueto (Colombia), Phil Traviss and Steve Scott
(UK), Klaas Meijaard (aka Greenman, Netherlands), Luca Giannitti (Italy), and
Christian Servant (France).
I've also been helped (mostly images) by Luis Baixinho (Portugal), Thorsten
Wilhelm (Germany), Gianluca Morelli (Italy), Henrik Thane and Morten Frost
(Denmark), and John Patterson (USA). And then there is a special thanks also to
Rene Hoffmeister (Germany), who has permitted me to use some of the LUGNET
images.
I could not have done this alone! I applaud all of these folks (and more) that
have contributed to the expanded knowledge of the LEGO hobby.
Thanks all,
Gary Istok
