After the news I wanted to secure a supply of mosaic plates in the old greys. Happily for me they are still shipping in the US with the old grey colors - as of last week anyway.

(...) Amazing how strong these illusions are! I wonder if they appear just as vivid when you build these with real bricks. Can you reveal what your inspiration source for these optical tricks was? With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen. (23 years ago, 30-Nov-03, to lugnet.build.mosaic)
