You forgot the group I suggested in another post:
lugnet.people.nwgwdag (Nerdy White Guys Who Date Asian Girls) group. It would
provide a safe space to discuss issues I find interesting and important, such as
posting "Asian Girl" alerts whenever TLG releases new minifigs in Ninja or

No one is forcing you to. Personally, if people leave over something so (...) (20 years ago, 19-Sep-04, to lugnet.people, lugnet.admin.nntp)
