Thanks Todd, I get it now. It's good to hear from you since it's your trademark
we're talking about (-:
I happen to dislike "AFOL" personally because it reminds me of "SMOF", "secret
masters of fandom", (which is a card in the Illuminati trading card game), a
reference to sci-fi fans, and that reminds me of sci-fi conventions.
However, I do want to point out that I have used the acronym just once, in one
of my FAQ answer submissions, this one:
http://www.lugnet.com/faq/?n=557
because the phenomenon I was describing is, as far as I can tell, universal to
adults and fairly rare among children. That is to say, children seem to be a
lot more creative and flexible, and undemanding, regarding the appearance of
their LEGO creations than adults. I think it's because adults are too picky.
