"Third, and most important, the data ties 2005, 2010, and 2014 as the three hottest years on record. Even within the margin of error and the occasional yearly fluctuation, our planet is getting steadily warmer. Ignoring this fact is like stepping in front of a train and hoping that, if we close our eyes, the train won't hit us."

My 6-yo son ("the boy") and I made this LEGO house last night.

My 6-yo son ("the boy") and I made this LEGO house last night. It was his vision and he made a lot of decisions as we both worked on making things fit. The scale's not consistent (minifigs and Hot Wheels aren't a close match), and we're not quite sure how he is supposed to get to the garage from his apartment (short of walking around outside), but it's a start. At least he gets good natural light in there. Having the roof come off easily lets the boy and his sister play with it, too, which is nice.

Holy cow! 400,000 bricks...amazing.
