Tomorrow (Friday, 3/26) is the deadline for the block of rooms the hotel has set aside for Bricks by the Bay. If you haven't done so yet, please reserve your room today! Be sure to ask for the Bricks by the Bay rate ($89/night) and you will get free wifi in your room as a bonus (normally $10/day extra)!

the majority of instructables,there are thousands of k'nex ibles but under 50 lego ones

That's because there are many Lego builder sites out there which specialize. For K'nex, Instructable is one of very few (maybe the only one? I don't know) which allow kids to put up pseudo-weapon designs. Since pseudo-weapons seem to be very popular among the adolescent male fan base, a lot of them participate here.
