(...) Mike, Don't mean to butt into y'alls group here. But don't worry to much about the "Hold for Show" thing. I get that every year now from GATS. It seems they never know the show layout till the last minute. I'm sure it's due to the fact that (...) (24 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.us.nclug)

When are we planning to prepare for the train show? I know we need to build tables, but is there a plan for where and when we will do this? I have a garage that could be used to build them, but I don't have any power tools. Also, who will keep these (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.us.nclug)

| | Mindstorm Mall Tour looking for a few good LUGs
|

A couple weeks back I posted a pretty critical but not mean-spirited (IMHO) critique of the mall tour as it passed near me (reference message Dear Lego n=2518).

(...) <snip> Yes. We only had 90"x120" to work with (or 9x12 baseplates), and it was cramped, to say the least. Hardly any space for buildings, and nowhere a train yard could go - this meant most of our switching was "5-finger switching", which is (...)
