I tracked down the guy in Denmark who was product manager for the Lego robotics kit in the mid-1980s. Got his name from one of the manuals, reached out to him on LinkedIn, and now we're corresponding by email. He already sent me some fascinating information. Tomorrow we are speaking by Skype at 1pm. Can't wait! I have so many questions. If any of you have questions, then let me know by tomorrow morning.
For some of the technical questions, I'm thinking to myself: "What would Dan ask?"
