Well, as you know, the internet, is an evergrowing tool for communication, and
for the way we plan to run things, it can cover a much larger purpose over the
web. We also plan om haveing information for kids, and not just the
disscussion groups. As I may have finished earlier, I think the a Kidlug
message board will tie it in opeing up a much larger experience for users.
Many more kids would become active in Lugnet through sites like us. There is
nothing wrong with having adults in Lug communities, but still, I thought that
Legos were originally a kids toy. I think it's great that adults have taken
part in this, but kids really add to the purpose. Also, I feel that we should
make Kidlug as much of a normal LUG as possible, and many people I think would
like to see lugnet.org.us.kidlug. I really hope that that clears more up, it
is just that we don't have as narrow a vision as we maybe should.
