(...) Oh, LEGO bricks by far would be more expensive. Consider the fact that you can buy a 10' 2x4 for about $8. In terms of 2x4 bricks, that would be roughly 2160 pieces, and the dirt-cheapiest you've ever been able to buy bricks is at $0.01 per (...) (22 years ago, 15-Apr-04, to lugnet.general)

A thought for you to ponder: Although it would take an astronomical amount of pieces, would it be possible to build a house out of LEGO and live in it? Compared to traditional building materials, which would be more expensive? -Bryan (22 years ago, 14-Apr-04, to lugnet.general)
