If looking for a new acronym, I'd instead be leaning toward using
"LEGO." But that's just my opinion. If I see "TLC" anyplace, I'll let
you know. Haven't yet.

Thanks for the info.

It doesn't appear that LEGO themselves have updated their web site...

This is an important announcement for any LEGO fan who has a web site
containing disclaimers.

The descriptive phrase "the LEGO Group" has changed to "the LEGO
Company." Its use applies to all LEGO companies, workplaces, and the
organization as a whole. In other languages it is to appear without • translation.

Well, if we really want an acronym, (I think LEGO is fine) I guess that since
the "the" is lowercase then it could just be "LC" Often times in acronyms
the "the"s and "and"s and such are left out. TLC just has too many other
meanings. T-Boz, Left-Eye, and Chilli might get mad.
