| Favorite LEGO toys/themes : | LEGO Technic / Model Team |
| My fascination with LEGO began... | when my brother got a LEGO locomotive back in 1972 (do you remember the blue locomotive with the battery box on top of the train motor ?) |
| LEGO is great because... | you can build anything with it |
| My biggest disappointment : | Before graduation, I contacted the LEGO Company for my thesis (the release of the Technic Control Center inspired me to build some kind of robot controlled by a computer). I know that similar projects are done in several countries with graduation students. In Belgium they refused to cooperate. They simply told me I had to go abroad if I wanted to go on with this project. |
