l337 Lounge Chat

Keith Robinson, David Warhol, Heather Edison, David Rolfe, John Sohl, Keith Robinson, David Stifel, and Bill Fisher of the Blue Sky Rangers held a chat session on August 3, 2013 in the “1337 Lounge” . In addition to sharing BSR stories, they also allowed fans engage with them via text-chat.

 

Using the handle “Decle Kid”, we peppered the ‘Rangers with questions, and they were great sports about it all!

A great event and one of the top-attended sessions in Lounge history.

A great effort from Laird’s Lair sharing “what could have been” if Mattel Electronics had pushed a bit harder in the industry. While just a few facts need editing, this is accurate and a very worthwhile piece to watch!
