I really don't think this comment is appropriate for this debate, Steve.
Not to overly criticize, but Allan wanted to distance himself from the
typical "fan of lego".  I wanted to try to prove that he didn't come up
with the title, but alas he did.  However, if you read any of his posts
regarding this, the overal context of his message is to "build in the eyes
of a 12 year old."


Which is exactly why I don't want to be lumped in with folks calling
themselves AFOL's.  I simply don't have enough in common with them to
warrent using that term.

And I don't use 'AFOL' because when you say it out loud, it's something
awful.

Now...that is pretty funny.... :)
