Well if anything the SF registry will show us that we ("LUGNET members") are
quite the minority in the LEGO market. I doubt we'd ever come close to
having all 10,000 listed. I'd be surprised if we ever broke 2,000.
And like you stated, a lot of the buyers might not be internet active, so it
really doesn't matter where you put a link to the registry.
The idea was really just to track those trains bought by the LUGNET and
R.T.L. community, thats really all I think we can hope for.
Remember it's just for fun any how, and it keeps down a bunch of "here is my
number" post off of LUGNET :)
