Hi Guys, I just added a search engine to the PNLTC web site and thought I would pass on my experience. I went to Atomz.com and they have a extremely easy way to add a search engine. You "register" with them, Name, Address... and then give them the (...) (25 years ago, 30-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains.org)

Well, it is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. I think that legomodular could be claimed as deprecating a brand more than LEGO(tm)-Modular could. Either way, it would seem very silly to have their legal department crack down on a couple (...) (25 years ago, 30-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)

(...) When I coined Legomodular I left the hyphen and capitalization out on purpose. Not really sure why except it seemed more suitable. Putting the hyphen back in emphasizes use of LEGO as an adjective. If there is a problem with it though, you (...) (25 years ago, 30-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)

I think that Lego is getting pretty ridiculous on their protection. Lego-modular describes exactly what it is. What else should it be called? Modular train tables using ABS automatic binding bricks? That opens the door for people to use rivtek and (...) (25 years ago, 30-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)

(...) I'm certainly not up on all the intricacies of trademark law, but I would think that there is a difference between what you use to describe your layout, and the name applied to a published standard. I'm just suggesting that this issue be (...) (25 years ago, 30-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)

If they come to me and tell me that I can't call my Lego train layout that has about a half-million of their bricks in it and costs tens of thousands of dollars a Lego-modular layout, I will retort that they would prefer it to a Megablock-modular (...)

Although it seems to me that I'm active in internet and Lego since ever, it's just a year ago today that I launched my own homepage. It became Cool Site of the Week just one month later and has grown and updated continously during the past year. So (...) (25 years ago, 30-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)
