Although that would certainly work, there are no right answers that I was
looking for. And there are no tests. I just enjoy people who can explain a
building technique with just words.
I was in a science competition as a teen where one person viewed something built
from LEGO bricks, Lincoln Logs or Tinker Toys (you never knew which) and had to
write with words only directions to rebuild it. The other teammate had to read
the directions and recreate the creation. Closest to the original won. An
extremely difficult task.
