Very, very interesting -- compares two versions of Richard Scarry's Best Word Book ever. I read this, I bet you did too ... thanks toloudis!

Pretty interesting stuff -- I watched an entire show (Nova, I think) where they tried to figure out how they moved the blocks into the pyramid (they built a mini-pyramid), but they never even suggested this technique. It makes sense, given the extraordinary difficulty they had building even the small replica by moving and (especially) raising blocks.
Quoted: Pyramid Stones Were Poured, Not Quarried -- article related to Science.
