just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 02/01/2010 8:44 pm I think it's a fake for several reasons. One is what is the purpose of having a block of something that is needed for so much stuff? Why bother placing it on display in the first place? Is there a block similar in Platinum? Silver? Does make for a nice photo though. Report this Post to the Staff
