I wouldn't be embarased none of the non-robotics stuff made it. Which is of no
supprise seeing that was the main theme of the event. I think most of the
stuff other than Henry's call at the NELUG table would be considered Modeling
or Art and they probably don't consider that tinkering or invention.
Your model is great by the way. Every time I try and do a modernish or real
building it comes out looking like 4 walls and a roof with no imagination
whatsoever. Maybe one of these days I will pick up a nack for buildings that
obviously you have and I don't yet.

Kudos for sure. I could not believe they didn't get Henry's name. Obviously
the people that run the Mindstorms web page are more on the ball and responsive
than those at the general LEGO web site. Hey I mean you can actually navigate
the Mindstorms site. What a concept.
