My 16-month-old son Benjamin's favorite gift seems to be either the Playskool 'Tyke-byke', a little scooter-like thing, or a small set of 'Duplo' brand building blocks. Duplo block are much like Lego brand blocks, but larger; the smallest one is unswallowable. Amazingly, he's almost able to put them together himself if he takes his time and doesn't get to impatient. Usually though, if his creation falls apart he comes to me and says 'Dada? Dada?' meaning "Father, this assembly has unacountably become discontinuous. Please reassemble it for me." (Gosh he's cute!) Oh yes, Duplo and Lego are registered trademarks of Lego International AG or whatever their exact name is. Berry Kercheval Zehntel Inc. (ihnp4!zehntel!zinfandel!berry) (415)932-6900
