obPartTrivia: Anyone notice that there are[1] two different versions of the
"Palm Tree Trunk Segment"? One is 40LDU[2] tall, the other is 44LDU tall.
The difference is in the male connector on the bottom of the part. The
shorter version appears to be the same as the taller, just 4LDU-worth of
connector has been removed.
The current version is the shorter. It's used in set #8247, Road Rebel.
The longer version grips about 3x better, when trying to separate the parts
by bending them sideways. This could be important, if your palm trees are
in a hurricane.

| (...) Hmm. I just realized that the palm tree trunk pieces in my copy of #5988, Pharaoh's Forbidden Ruins, are the longer version. That's the version I thought was older. Weird *and* trivial. Steve (25 years ago, 17-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.general)
