What is your "feeble excuse" this time (8-)#
I do this thing *all* the time - something to do with dyslexia and two
fingered typing. I find it quicker to type quickly and correct
afterwards. Some great ones happen when my brian makes spelling
mistokes. Then they often get left, intentionally. Wasn't a typo how
the "Little Green Forst" saga started, and I have always preferred the
name "QL Toady".
Probably 12 years!
It wasn't Lego. I forget the name, but Qview developed it from a German
kit that was *something* like Lego but was sold to schools and
universities as commercial kit. I liked it so much that I bought a kit.
I must try and get it out again. It's major failing was that it broke
with use.
Tony
