(...) A very, very good idea! Afterall, the MOCs and the subsequent sharing of techniques and ideas were primarily what Lugnet was all about! Though I am not a very active poster, I do lurk and read alot of the posts and the elevated levels of (...) (20 years ago, 22-Dec-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Cool! Thanks for posting this. I still can't believe how popular my stoopid CVT is. According to those stats it gets the most hits on my website. I get more emails about that than anything else on my page. Rob (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I'm not sure I agree. The Internet is a hyper-acceleration of the human tendency to spend more time on negative communication than on positive. Any company gleaning information from a customer or fan base on the Internet must, in order to (...) (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I think I may have to make a new year's resolution, give up on lugnet and just browse brickshelf instead. That's where most of today's cool MOCs show up anyhow.
