Um, yeah, me neither . . .

The bathroom design owes a lot to Drew Dirschell:

When I got the "Troll on the Loose" set my SO complained that there was no
toilet. I had recently seen Drew's work, so I built the stall. Later I
incorporated it into this lab construction.

In RL I'm a chemist (duh, who else would build this) and I recently had to draw
up a budget for a lab. Believe me, these prices are reasonable. A new NMR,
for instance, will cost you several hundred thousand, plus maintenance and
installation costs. $10000 on the student office was pretty generous, but I
was a student not very long ago. I splurged on the Professor's office. He has
expensive tastes. :)

I was talking with some other people about this and I'd love to see people in
other fields interpret their departments in Lego form. We could have a whole
virtual Lego University.

? I was never in a frat, so maybe I'm missing something?
Thanks for the comments.
