absence, and realize there is so much I need to catch up on...;)

(...) Along the same lines, does anybody know if there are any Shell stations in Detroit that have the larger LEGO promo sets, and are close enough to the Canadian border to make it worth going through customs? I'm going to Windsor this weekend for (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.ca.on, lugnet.org.us.michlug)

(...) As an aside to this, does anyone know if these are in Canada at all? James (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.ca)
