(...) (Sorry, Larry, for the delay. I just *now* saw your reply.) :P The answer is: Both. Technical reasons. If I see the "human" URL (instead of the CGI one), I can snip off the tail end of the URL for the parent folder, one level at a time... (...) (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.publish)

  Re: Ryan's overhauled site
 
(...) Whoa, good timing! Just a few hours ago I was poking around your site to see your LDraw-compatible K'Nex and Lincoln Log stuff, and I noticed the slick new design. Very sharp! One comment, though. The K'Nex and Lincoln Log links from this (...) (21 years ago, 20-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.publish, lugnet.general)

  Taking LUGNET to the next level
 
Chats with people at BrickFest PDX last weekend got me thinking a lot more about LUGNET and its role in the community. I've bounced some of my thoughts off of various people (including three people from LEGO) and responses varied from positive to (...)

Hello! (...) Well, most AFOLs already have been LEGO fans as kids and - after a periode of neglecting the brick, the so called 'dark ages' - found back to their old love. That means: For the purpose of growing hard core LEGO fans it's necassary to (...)

  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.

This site (LEGOFan) could include content (such as offsite (...)

  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
I really don't have a problem with the community trying to set up a web-site and trying to get the community to come together. I agree (with Terry) that saying that a certain site will be the one-stop shop is insulting. The one point I'd like to (...)

This is _not_ the ONLY audience interested in LEGO. For those whose online LEGO experience (...)
