I *reall* don't like posting off-topic to lugnet.robotics, because of the heavy traffic and because it's still mostly a mailing list. Anyway, here are my Ten Commandments for LEGO Purists. Some of them wander off a bit, but after "don't use glue, (...) (26 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

I guess it was a combination of two inclincations in my brain: "I'm going to move this because it's off-topic, so let's take it to off-topic". "humorous[1]/spoof has (...)
