Tom Stangl posted about the newspaper article... I love this quote from
it!

              Martin Eberhard, a toy aficionado and
              CEO of the Silicon Valley startup
              NuvoMedia, had to put his foot down
              when he caught his entire engineering
              department -- who were supposed to be
              designing an electronic book -- sitting
              on the floor playing with Lego sets.

              ``I had to make an office rule,'' he told
              Fortune Magazine last summer. ``No
              Lego playing during work hours.''
