Hi all, So I've come out of the dark ages finally and decided to join lugnet to bask in and osmose the combined (astounding) wisdom of the builders here. Haven't done much since coming out of dark ages (didn't do much before either, to be honest). (...) (22 years ago, 12-Jul-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) The semi-"offical" day is listed here: (URL) is near the bottom of the list under BYFMTWW. I guess at first, it was only a day...but it has evolved into a more festive length...a whole week. Ben (22 years ago, 11-Jul-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Adr. Lego Company seems to have forgotten about the best sets they have ever offered. The larger more difficult Technic sets seem to have vanished. Maybe I will have to go toEuropean sources to find Eitech or Merkur sets that are challenging. (22 years ago, 11-Jul-02, to lugnet.technic)
