Well I guess I am a greek. I am a structural engineer, and looking back
on things - I actually learned a good deal about structural mechanics
just by building with Lego as a young child. I didn't know at the time
the technical physics behind it all, but through trial and error I
intuitively learned the basics of how to design through the use of Lego.
That's why I think Lego is such a great toy - you are learning things
without even realizing it.
