Okay, here we go...
Do Ritvik bricks really fall apart in the sun (that's an exxageration :-)
How suitable are they for a project like, for example, building a 5-foot-high
replica of the US Capitol Building?
I ask because Ritvik bricks can apparently be bulk-ordered:
http://www.nd.edu/~lego/grp2/www/legobrdg.htm
and it seems to me that they would be very useful for building simple things
like the mass of this hillside:
http://www.execpc.com/~pfoster/nmra/gmltc6.jpg
or this one:
http://www.execpc.com/~pfoster/nmra/gmltc8.jpg
(The people who build these things often complain about the cost of all the
bricks.) Ignoring the fact that using all-LEGO is somehow more satisfying, is
there any other reason I can't build a huge hillside out of Ritvik?
