HOwdy, and welcome! So, you want to become a member, eh? I guess that means
you have to go through our hazing routine--it differs for ever member, but we
generally have initiates do things like walk barefoot and blindfolded across a
floor littered with sharp Lego bricks, or pry apart a stack of 10 4x6 plates
put tightly together using nothing but your bare fingers ;-) OK, more
seriously...we don't really have membership requirements--I guess our
requirement would be that you're old enough (over 18? over 21?) or have a
parent accompany you to events. I suppose if we had somebody particularly
obnoxious show up we might ask 'em to leave, but I think that would be reserved
for quite extreme cases. We've met a few times, generally quite informally in
a public place. There are a few of us around Syracuse, a couple in Ithaca, one
in Utica, and one in Canandaigua (I think--that's Ed) that I can think of
offhand. We've met in Syracuse in the past and may aim to have our next
meeting in Cortland, if we get it planned. Several of us are train types. I
took a look at your web page and see you're into town--a good complement to
trains :-)
In any case, welcome!
Alan

| Nate Welcome aboard.. To complete your membership please send a check for 1000 dollars US and all your lego to me and we should be all set.

| Whew...I am glad to hear I only have to walk on a floor littered with sharp bricks. I was a little concerned I might have to find a white 1x1 in a 5ft lake-effect snow drift. Unfortunatly as we speak I don't have $1000 to send, but is $.10 okay for (...) (23 years ago, 25-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)
