That's cool. I can appreciate the fact it was done in "ems" as well. I love that kind of stuff...

As for "why"... why build the statue of liberty out of legos? ;)

...well, yeeeeeaaaaahhhhh, but I think assembling a lego statue of liberty is a bit different from building a well-known cartoon character out of hundreds of typographical cyphers. What the hell is the point in doing that? To show you can do it? I've made faces out of two fried eggs and a sausage in my time, but I'd never claim it had any artistic merit, or want to make a youTube video of the process...

I dunno, sometimes you can learn a lot doing something silly like that.

Who knows, maybe your egg and sausage youtube video will be an award winner.

Must I mention the pawn known a Fred? He does little more than that. I assume you people are mature enough not to let this start a debate.

Also, back on topic, I don't think it's displaying quite right in my browser. Therefore, I have no opinion to offer on it, but I don't see why you wouldn't approveb of someone posting this?
