Reverent Legoists,
For a mere five percent of your legos I will send you special
cans of Lego(tm) air. I bring this down once a week from the top of
Mount Lego(tm).
This air can be used in all of your pneumatic devices. Also,
for those holiest of legoists whom have taken a vow of silence to
utter nary a word except for lego part numbers, you can receive a
giant Lego(tm) bubble within which you can construct your models.
This will make sure that any non-lego air never gets trapped between
interlocked pieces.
AhuhAHuhahUHmen, (<-- gregorian style )
-Paul
