Yeah, it went on and on...mostly because the thread was so long that people would not read the answer and the thread kept starting over and over again. Very frustrating.

Partly the same problem though.

That thread had other problems though. The question was open to interpretation and many of the posters had no understanding of physics whatsoever.

That would, no doubt, be a month they didn't interact with a single female.
I hear that they're also working on a Lego Jackrabbit to prepare for the following month. :)

We had this discussion, a long, long time ago. It was many hundreds of posts long.

Conclusion: Both Lego and Legos are equally WRONG, but the former is 'correct' in the European vernacular and the latter in American vernacular.

The CORRECT way to say it (from the Lego corporate site) is "Lego Bricks."

Stop correcting people when you're just as wrong as them!

THAT thing was amazing. This is sorta cool at first, but really not that great.

How old are you? I am a child of the late 70's and my lego sets had pneumatics, motors, and hydraulics.
