    Re: Conversation w/ a LEGO Rep —Ensio Tammi
   <skip> (...) Try to explain to an European what the creationists are doing right now in the Kansas, for example? We have to go centuries back when church (religion) has such a power here (at least in the Northern Europe). How bout the late shooting (...) (25 years ago, 26-Aug-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

   Maybe I'm just having a bad day... (...) huh? What, growing wheat? It's a disgrace, I know, but SOMEONE has to rake in the big bucks... (...) Such a shame. The world is much more flavorful when you mix in a good dosage of religion with secularism. (...) (25 years ago, 26-Aug-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

        Re: Conversation w/ a LEGO Rep —Jeremy Sproat
     (...) Who says I don't ask myself what's going on? It's true, the young age of these killers is tragic. How much more tragic do you want it to be? Would you prefer the killers who go uncaptured for years? Give me one kid who blows up and burns out (...) (25 years ago, 27-Aug-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

     (...) Okay, I've read this several times over, and I'm afraid that your elusive language, while obviously passionate and not without a hint of poetry, has gotten the best of me. In other words, huh? Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 27-Aug-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
    
         Re: Conversation w/ a LEGO Rep —John Neal
     I hope that Ensio is not implying that we Midwesterners are 100 years behind CA et al and the East Coast! I know Buddy Holly is just catching here, but hey, *that's* a little extreme! -John "backwater" Neal (...) (25 years ago, 29-Aug-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

        Re: Conversation w/ a LEGO Rep —Christopher L. Weeks
   (...) How many Serbs under the age of 15 have shot people? My guess is that you'll find a higher percent than in the US. We have petty little school yard violence and you act like it's a major rash. We're mostly not arming our youth to go kill (...) (25 years ago, 28-Aug-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

        Re: Conversation w/ a LEGO Rep —Christopher L. Weeks
   (...) A) Your anecdote is poor small sample statistics. Just because your school in Jersey was blessed by the holy mother of magnetic umbrellae doesn't mean that applies to the whole of the US.
