Treasure of the Spanish Plate Fleet, 1716 On July 31st, 1715 one of the wealthiest Treasure Fleets in history wrecked off the coast of Florida. Millions of Spanish coins, jewels, and other valuables littered the shallows. After months of Spanish recovery efforts a small fortune remained lightly guarded on the beach, open to anyone daring enough to steal it. In early 1716, a small group of pirates lead by Henry Jennings, Sam Bellamy, and Benjamin Hornigold raided the small Spanish garrison and made off with a haul equivalent to 10 years of wages for only a single nights 'work'. The wealth of this raid and the inspiration it provided for would-be pirates across the New World, kicked off the final stages of the Golden Age of Piracy.

Why the upper age limit???
Idris posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hello All! I am sure this topic was created before but I couldn’t find it. As LEGO Technic creates the finest and toughest mostly moving and functional and coolest “3D assembly systems” in the World for 42 years, I firmly think that the upper age limit should not exist. Yes, a lower age limit is needed, but an upper age limit, “limits” the love for LEGO Technic. Many times, I’m sure, many people having twice or three or four or even five times the upper age limit written on boxes of LEGO Technic, want/need/like/love to make one, at least to “clear their minds”. But this upper age limit as afore-said, in my opinion, creates a limit for the LEGO Technic lover. Therefore I kindly suggest you put a lower age limit but a “infinite symbol” or a “?” for the upper age limit for those wonderful creations when Technic is the issue. Best Regards, Idris
