I didn't ask to see his ID, but he was wearing a VIP Kidvention credential and was familiar with the terms "LUGNET" and "LEGO Direct." It was a very brief encounter since I didn't (...)

(...) Are you sure that this isn't the BBC television mini-series? If so, you're right: it's very poor. You can also get the original radio show on tape (or CD, for that matter).
