Unless 2002 shows some sign of turnaround in the LEGO world, I'm afraid LEGO will lose a fan/customer in all areas except for technic/mindstorms. Being a town fan, if I can't mix new LEGO with the past 20 years worth of my collection then how am I (...) (24 years ago, 3-Feb-01, to lugnet.year.2001)
