This is really old stuff.

From an article in the newspaper I thought they were mentioning this,
but I think it was an over edited sentence since it mentioned something
about "Lego and xyzzy concentration camps" where xyzzy was something
that sounded like an actual camp name. I'm guessing the original article
had two sentences talking about different things, and the editor didn't
realize one was a medium (Lego) and one was a place name (whatever it
was).

(...) The point of the artist was as far as I remember to remind us that even as "innocent" things as toys can be used to create horrible things. He may have a point, but he is an awfull craftsman. Play well, Jacob -- (URL) (23 years ago, 18-Mar-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.us.ny.ny)
