Lego map of USA

Via Boing Boing I've come across this project where Lego set up a build area outside of the Smithsonian to let kids make a mosaic of the map of the USA.

As a lego-maniac I see the beauty in this. It's only lack of disposable income that keeps me from owning as much Lego as I can carry. And I've kind of kept myself from going to Lego-land because you'd only get reams of pictures of me terrorizing Lego cities like I was Godzilla.
