Erik, Yeah I guess most folks wouldn't remember the 50's (I have so few memories myself :-) , but the current window assortment just doesn't give AFOL's enough windows to build with. I don't know what TLC's fixation with doors is all about. They (...) (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)
