    is on TV right now.

    They just said, and I quote; "There are 62 Lego bricks for each and every one of the 6 billion plus people on earth."

    Holy cow, that's a LOT of sore feet!

    They went on to say that every year LEGO produces enough bricks to up that number 2 bricks each. 12 billion a year! :eek6:

    They may have manufactured that many since they started making them decades ago but I wonder what percentage is in landfills, etc, by now. I'd guess it's well over half.
