  No, it doesn't. It means that they are able to compute the users' password with resources available to them, not that they store clear-text passwords. If a password is stored in such a way as to be decipherable by using a cryptographic algorithm to recombine multiple (hopefully some being secret) elements, it's not stored in cleartext. We don't know that this is the case as far as legoland goes, but we also don't know that they store clear-text passwords simply by being able to return one to a specific user via email. It's an unsafe practice (cleartext email password return), but it doesn't indicate much about how they choose to store passwords.
