I think you asked this question (word for word, IIRC) in a different • group.
Did you read the answers you got there? I did, and I felt that your

responses (or even try using resources here on LUGNET like the guide and
instruction scans to answer the questions for yourself) before asking • folks

Indeed I did. And though helpful, I was also told in one of the posts (from
Santosh Bhat) to ask here as well. If I had been thinking, it would have
been a cross-post to begin with :0P~~~ I was also hoping to get peoples
opinions rather than what has been writen in a guide, or the scans. ie - Do
people think monorail is a waste of time, etc.. (Which I have discovered,
unless I'm patient with a lot of money, it is) And I'm sure that if people
couldn't be bothered taking time to answer basic questions, then I'm sure
they wouldn't (Well, -I- wouldn't, unless I had time, which I do today :)  )

Fair enough. Probably would have cut down on confusion if you put in a new
post referencing the old one and saying you still had questions, rather than
repeating the old one (what seemed like) word for word.

To the question of "is monorail a waste of time"... I think the answer is
"it depends"...

IMHO we have seen all that there is. If you can be satisfed with that,
knowing that it will cost you a bit to get it, then by all means, go for it.
I know I love it dearly and I was just playing with mine yesterday. But if
you want to get more and different sets beyond what is there and what you
can create for yourself, then no, don't set yourself up for heartbreak,
because, again IMHO, there ain't ever going to be any more new.

Which is a darn shame, it's pretty nifty. Hope I'm wrong. Fear I'm right.
