  Re: Age limitations
 
I'm not involved in NELUG, but I want to contribute a comment: When I was 14, I belonged to a computer user group. I think the parallels will be clear. Once a month I cajoled an older person to drive me over to Texas Tech for a few crammed hours of (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us, lugnet.org.us.nelug)
 
  Re: Age limitations
 
(...) Not sure what you mean by "demographic minority"... my gender? Age? Or perhaps my nationality? I'm in a minority in all those aspects (at least as far as lego is concerned). (...) That's what I'm hoping for... (...) <grin> Yes, thanks. (...) (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us, lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) Karen and I will definitely be there for the fireworks. If we come earlier depends a lot on what we hear here. (24 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
 
  Re: Age limitations
 
(...) I expect, without trying to be too presumptuous, that you also get a few glances because you're in a demographic minority as far as the hobby is concerned, even insofar as it applies to "adults." (...) I've met some 16-year-olds who could (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us, lugnet.org.us.nelug)
 
  Age limitations
 
Hey all, I'm posting here to explain my opinion(s) about the age limitation in NELUG. I've talked to many people about my stand on this, especially during and after the WAMALUG Brickfest. Many people there expressed their agreement with what I said, (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us, lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.general, lugnet.people) !! 
 
  Re: july 4 thing
 
Well, I hope you guys can make it... I can't help wondering, though - who else is planning on coming? And, if Todd and Suz can't come, will there still be interest in doing this? I just don't wanna come and discover I'm the only one there. So PLMK. (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
 
  Re: july 4 thing
 
(...) The weather is looking like it'll be excellent (maybe a bit hot, but not prohibitively bad) so that's encouraging, but I won't know until tomorrow morning whether I/we can make it -- for the past few days Suzanne has been really sick with a (...)

  Re: First block of Main Street for Brikwars, Train, or Modern town display

I have kept accessability in mind for the other 2 but I didn't want to use up all my 1xX (...) (24 years ago, 1-Jul-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.org.us.nelug)
 
  Re: First block of Main Street for Brikwars, Train, or Modern town display
 
Eric, This looks absolutely amazing. I am extremely impressed with how it came out ... I am drooling over the idea of having another Brikwars festival with that in the scenery and landscape. Out of curiosity, are the insides accessible? Regardless, (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jun-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.org.us.nelug)
