(...) Thanks! (...) Good catch on the ball. Those little details just bring it to life for me. (...) Come to the dark side... I'm probably gonna build a castle someday with all of the gray bricks I bought for this thing, so it's only fair that you (...) (22 years ago, 3-Dec-03, to lugnet.space)

(...) Thanks! My goal was to include all the features I've always wanted, too. I've come close, but I had to save some stuff for the next one :-) And I'm sure that if you built something big, it would ROCK. Get busy :-) - Paul (22 years ago, 2-Dec-03, to lugnet.space)
