I hate to be pedantic (and people hate me when I'm pedantic), but Lego
bricks are made of ABS, aka Acetyl Butyl Styrene or
Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene. The chemical formula is
[(c8h8)k-(C3H3N)l-(C4H6)m]n. I don't know what a lot of that formula
means, but I do know that C mean Carbon, and anything containing carbon
(except cyanide and carbon dioxide) is by definition organic.
