Hello,

Here's an article about the adult LEGO community published in the newspaper "La
Presse" in Montreal (Quebec, Canada) and on their web site.

Featuring quotations from Christina Hitchcock, Calum Tsang, Jake McKee and
myself.  I hope you know a good online translator because the article is in
french.

Very cool!

I tried to translate it using Alta Vista Babel Fish. It worked out good enough
to get the majority of the story. But there were a few, lets say interesting,
translations!

-it is the dream job for large children (What? Thin children cant dream too?
Unless they were talking only to American children, then it makes sense>)

-plastic orgasme (I hope that with the e on the end it means something else!)

-a Lego orgy (so THATS what my bricks do at night while I'm sleeping!)
