Sorry I couldn't make it to the gathering. My transportation option fell through, and it would have been an expensive cab ride! I could take a bus, but by the time I figure out which ones to take, and get to the stops, etc it will be quite late. (...) (24 years ago, 15-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

Well I would agree that I had fun. To top it off, on Saturday I went to Victoria and visited the Victoria Lego crowd. Two days of Lego mania in a row! We built a couple of rocked powered Lego cars, which was a blast! see for yourself. (URL) I am (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

(...) I agree. I'd say we reserve the first 30 minutes or so for our 'admin.' meetings and new business. To keep things simple I suggest we adopt the 'Robert's Rules of Order' for our meetings. I also suggest that we appoint/vote for positions of (...) (24 years ago, 18-Jun-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

(...) That wasn't my point. I was saying that a public event where everyone isn't playing with LEGO would be safer (from the standpoint that nobody's private property would be likely to go missing) would be safer than if the events as they currently (...)

So... let's talk about it. I think it wouldn't be a bad idea for a meeting to have one or two people speak who've been to LEGOland. I haven't gone there yet, and I think it'd it'd be a real hoot to hear about somebody's experiences there. Maybe a (...) (24 years ago, 18-Jun-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)
