  Yes LEGO did make drafting paper!
 
TLC actually did make a drafting type paper back in the 1960's. The Architectural Sets (#750, #751, #752) each came with several sheets of this paper, which looks more like graph paper. Each box within the grid was the size of a 1x1 brick. The (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.edu)

(...) The application matters to the user/browser, but not the server. The application type tells the browser what kind of app to launch. This allows a greater flexability for the end-user.

  Re: Website
 
Quite possibly I don't have a clue what I'm doing. The mime type you listed and that are listed in the FAQ have the extension: .dat and an application type: application/x-ldlite application/x-ldraw etc. If it doesn't matter, why specify then?

  Making one of those "Foreign" Ambulances.....
 
After watching Black Mask for like the 100th time, I got an inspiration to build those Hong Kong Ambulances in the movie. After checking the records, the obvious starting point to build one is with #6676 Mobile Comamnd Unit. But, coverting the unit (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build)
