    Well, being at the North Pole, the only thing they actually wouldn't be able to make would be compasses. Clearly they'd have no means of testing them, since they'd just erratically swing in circles.

    @KineticRocketFireBalls:
    Unless they actually live at the magnetic north pole, all compasses would point south. The same south. As in, if the building is located square on the North Pole, and you were standing in the middle of the room, all four walls would be south of your location. But the compass needle would always point at the same wall.

    @AdamFrucci Dammit! I am sick of tired of ignorant A-holes like yourself who are so quick to implement prejudice toward any type of person you don't understand racially and/or culturally. Sure they have squeaky voices and yes, they do giggle an awful lot about EVERYTHING. But once you look past the silly outfits and creepy facial hair will you see that they're just different. That's all. I can only dream of a day when the elf-bashing ceases and a life of harmony can finally begin.

    I will not allow my children physically play with such thing. These could be dangerous, so when they come out with a video game version they can get that.

    @G.O.D.: What's dangerous about it? They look way too large to swallow or anything, and unless you also give your kids a saw they wouldn't be getting the magnets out...

    @coughiecup: I've been leafing through these forums for some time now and have noticed that the comments often tend to branch out to topics that have nothing to do with the original article.
