Edith Ackermann from the MIT Media Lab just sent along a website of the work of Arvind Gupta, which includes a fantastic page called Toys from Trash ("the best thing a child can do with a toy is break it !").

What a lovely collection of toys, ideas, and creativity... and really nice, simple documentation.

Another wonderful quote he references:

"And somewhere there are engineers
Helping others fly faster than sound.
But, where are the engineers
Helping those who must live on the ground?"
