  Re: "emergency becomes a *disaster.*"
 
(...) Because they don't want to lie at them? :wq Horst (23 years ago, 8-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Wanted
 
(...) Larry, I know you're kinda "slow" and all, so I'll just repeat myself: Why did you feel feel the need to back up Amy's original post to Eric's cross-posting? Why? Do you just wake up everyday and feel a compulsive urge to be a jerk? This is (...) (23 years ago, 9-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Wanted
 
(...) Indeed. And maybe someone can explain exactly what it is about how it's done that seems to be the issue? Be specific, please, as I'd stack my words up against anyone's for gentleness in the incident that set off Mladen's mudslinging. Because (...) (23 years ago, 9-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Wanted
 
(...) Many of us 'play policeman' from time to time, Larry. It's how it's done that's important, not how often. -Dave (23 years ago, 9-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Wanted
 
(...) ?? Hardly. I just figured you might have missed that someone was "playing policeman" and might want to get in on the lynch party. Wouldn't want you to miss out. (23 years ago, 9-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Wanted
 
Look everyone! Larry is trying to insult me, and poorly might I add. Why Larry? 'Cause I made you look bad last week? Hmmm... Behaviour like this is to be expected from you. Okay, now back to building for me, and back to a life of sadness for you. (...) (23 years ago, 9-Nov-01, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: "emergency becomes a *disaster.*"
 
(...) Frank, The LP's mail problems and 911 are linked… at least indirectly. As far as I know, 911 is not linked to any natural disaster. Further, I doubt the LP's demise would be a "disaster" when compared to "hurricanes and typoons and whatnot"… (...) (23 years ago, 7-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: "emergency becomes a *disaster.*"
 
(...) If we are to use that logic, there haven't been very many disasters in the past few years. All those hurricanes and typoons and whatnot? How many have caused thousands of deaths and billions of dollars in damage? (23 years ago, 7-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: "emergency becomes a *disaster.*"
 
(...) I've just had an update from LP HQ. They are now only waiting on donations from a further 34,163 LP members. If those 34,163 members dig deep perhaps a "disaster"{1} can be avoided. Why don’t they just tell their creditors “the cheque is in (...) (23 years ago, 7-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Perhaps Lugnet can grow into something better? was: I miss the old Lugnet
 
(...) All right..... I'll give you that one. :) I wasn't really thinking the analogy through completely. Regards, Allan (I'm not a LEGOaholic, I just play one on the internet) (23 years ago, 7-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Perhaps Lugnet can grow into something better? was: I miss the old Lugnet
 
(XPOST & FUT off-topic.debate) (...) This is a tangent, and I'm not commenting on your analogy. But... 'The bottle of beer in his hand' is *not* the alcoholic's real problem. It's *a* problem, and it certainly needs to be dealt with. But throwing (...) (23 years ago, 6-Nov-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: "emergency becomes a *disaster.*"
 
(...) That thought did cross my mind... (...) I do not agree. If the LP were to fold it would be regrettable - nothing else. In the context on Sept 11 this is not a disaster. (...) If you loosing your job leads to that sequence of events, I think (...) (23 years ago, 5-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: I miss the old LUGNET...
 
(...) Are you really saying you think he is? Or just that you think he thinks he is? (...) :-o (...) I agree with Larry that this is an "important discussion". What I can't understand is why it is in this group? Scott A (...) (23 years ago, 5-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Legos role in Anti-terrorism
 
It was not my intention to start a debate. Sorry. The point I was hoping to make was, in light of my current situation, I'm still building on my Lego collection and they help me get through the days. Day by day... (23 years ago, 5-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: mine mine mine (was Re: I miss the old LUGNET...)
 
(...) Yes. IIRC, the posts of mine that Scott cited (without giving the URL, for some reason) were in support of the notion while somewhat less (quite a bit less) supportive of the manner in which that notion was voiced by some. (23 years ago, 5-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
