  TonyB if you are old then I am ancient and I don't like the ramifications
of that at all. When I was a very young child Lego's had just been invented.
Tinker Toys, Lincoln Logs, and the Erector Set were the rage back then and
Lego's were of only passing interest to the hard core construction oriented
child. There were absolutly no "theme" oriented Lego packages available at
all. Not even wheels had been marketed in the dark older days of Lego
construction. Can you imagine that ? The things the people of my generation
had to suffer when I was growing up couldn't possibly be imagined by the youth
of today.
  Did I mention the 10 miles of snow we walked through to get to school here
in Southern California :)
