(...) Steve- Catalina Island would certainly be topical. And fun. Answer: No. Extended answer. It's not a train. I posted to trains because it's being done by an LTC (just to prove we are versatile?). -Ted (19 years ago, 20-Jun-05, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc, FTX)

(...) Adrian- Well, it IS the year of the Avacado, SCLTC IS going to OCF, and one could make a huge avacod with that many green bricks. Answer: No. Extended answer: The Big Thing will make its debut at the 2005 Orange County Fair. -Ted (19 years ago, 20-Jun-05, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc, FTX)

(...) John- That sounds like a lot of fun! Answer: No. Extended answer: You speculate accurately on the blue bricks. We have already received 20,000 blue 2x2 bricks and have 12,000 more on order for this project. -Ted (19 years ago, 20-Jun-05, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc, FTX)

(...) Well, I do recall seeing an announcement of SCLTC going to the Orange County Fair, and, according to their site, it's the year of the avacado. So, you plan on building a giant avacado made of LEGO bricks. Adr. (19 years ago, 20-Jun-05, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc, FTX)

(...) Janey- Actually, I think a 100 (48 x48) baseplate mosaic would be cool. Tha would get the resolution up to 480 x 480 or 75% of VGA, which is a lot better than the 8 baseplate x 3 baselplate mosaic we just presented to Northwood High School in (...)

(...) I will start, since mosaics have a bit more than 2000 bricks per base plate, I will guess a super huge 100 baseplate mosaic.... although I dont really think that is it that would be cool! Janey "I suck at guessing, Red Brick" (19 years ago, 19-Jun-05, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc, FTX)

Hi- SCLTC is up to something big. We will post a hint daily. You are invited to guess what we are doing. If, by chance, you know what we're doing, then it would not be a guess for you to respond here. Have fun! -Ted Michon SCLTC (19 years ago, 19-Jun-05, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.build, lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org.scltc, lugnet.loc.us.ca, lugnet.town, FTX) !
