  Re: 3rd millennium
 
(...) I figured if it was to be the first LUGNet post that Todd's computer's clock would have to be the reference standard for our little LEGO world. If it ceases to function our world ceases to exist. :-) (...) Interesting. I agree it's rather (...) (25 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

When did the first brick pop out of LEGOs molds? I'll dub that year zero my-self. (25 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  there ain't no such thing as "year zero"...
 
Frank, There was *not* a "year zero". The year after "1 BC" was the year "AD 1". The Christian Calendar (and that *is* what it is, whether or not people want to accept it as such) is *not* a number line; IT DOESN'T HAVE A "ZERO"! Thus, the FIRST (...)

  Re: Herring
 
Show me leftover pizza, and I would drop the whole penguin act! On the other hand: I was in Nova Scotia, and was offered smoked salmon as a pizza topping. That was *so* good! Not so good: I have never seen so many brussels sprouts served as in this (...) (25 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: Herring
 
(...) No, I really did breakfast on herring. Yum! Last night I ate sardines before I figured out there was herring in the jar. That's why there was herring leftover to eat today. Yum! I bet there is still one more herring chunk down among the (...) (25 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  When did the 3rd millennium start?
 
(...) But if you're talking about the 9th decade of the 20th century, aren't you referring to 1981/01/01 to 1990/12/31? --Todd (25 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: First (was Re: Ultimate castle theme..)
 
(...) Others would point out that 2001/01/01 00:00:01 GMT is not the start of the new millenium even if you subscribe to the incorrect notion (1) that 2001 is the start of the new millenium, not 2000. GMT is 12 hours behind the international date (...) (25 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Herring
 
(...) Probably. OTOH, I realized that if I had been posting on lugnet since it started, in the same frequency I had been posting between Dec. 1999 and mid-July 2000, I'd have more posts than even you do. <gasp> -Shiri (lucky fifth blabbermouth) (25 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: Proposal: a TOWN building contest!
 
How about just 3 catagories: ~100 pieces ~1000 Pieces ~unlimited So, you would have vehicles in the ~100 piece catagory, along with parks, park benches, and other neat (small) things. Smaller houses/buildings would fall into the ~1000 piece (...) (25 years ago, 1-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: The Grinch toys
 
(...) Not true. The TTTE stuff from Hornby appeared before the TV show was finished (in 1984/5). So, it was based on the books, and what was available in the Hornby mold room rather than on the TV show. (It also predates most of the C. Audry books- (...)

  Re: Three New Train Cars
 
(...) No, I don't believe I did make that implication. If you drew that inference where it wasn't implied, I'd say that was sloppy, imprecise, non critical thinking on your part. (...)
