| (...) Wow! So, ok. You were *really* bored :) Cool anyhow but I'm not sure if it's that practical since you need Internet access anyhow and then a launch of a webbrowser is easier then to find ICQ and the user BrickInfo.

At the moment I'm thinking "train on the line"=1, "not on the line"=0. NOT could be done by reversing the (...)
