Yeah, it is pretty hard to get people to understand the whole "Legos" thing.
Also the video they provide didn't include a 3-4 minute in-studio interview with
NELUGer Mike Ripley.  Mike did a great job, although the sub-title under his
name read "LEGOs Collector".  Ah Well... I thought it was a very well done piece
none-the-less.

(...) Enjoyed! It's great to see the LEGO Fan community finally getting more exposure. The show/article was fun, informitive and respectful of our hobby. But they still said "Legos" :P -- Nathan Wells (21 years ago, 4-Oct-05, to lugnet.mediawatch)
