  Re: Another competition idea: rtlToronto 14.5: Do you Mock me, Sir?
 
(...) Very Nice Post Steve!!! I like the satirical tone of the post!!! Way to start it by centering it around Chris (and his "leadership" skills) and then use it as a call to action for all the "lurkers" and "non-robot competitors" (like me). I (...)

(...) I think he is having "TECHNICal" difficulties posting to LUGNET when he is not at home. Hey Chris...why don't you use the WEB interface...then you won't have to worry about your e-mail account messing up your posting. Ben (22 years ago, 11-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Another competition idea: rtlToronto 14.5: Do you Mock me, Sir?
 
(...) You know, I hate to say this, but I'm actually starting to feel bad for Chris. I guess some of us really just don't "get" technology.

  Re: WHere to buy used legos in Toronto

The truth is, the peak for (...) (22 years ago, 11-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: If you lose an eye, it's a sport!
 
(...) My guess is you probably own an Ultimate Accessory Set (for the remote, right). But there was also a rotation sensor, the all-important light and, oh yeah, a touch sensor. Matthias Jetleb (22 years ago, 11-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Do you Mock me, Sir?
 
(...) Wait...now I'm REALLY confused 'witty repartee' and Chris. You know, sometimes, I have to pause and think about some of the things Iain posts, but, I eventually get it...but this statement??? Bruce (22 years ago, 11-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Another competition idea: rtlToronto 14.5: Do you Mock me, Sir?
