Raul Lemesoff, an eccentric artist in Buenos Aires, Argentina, has created a bizarre tank-like \u2018Weapon Of Mass Instruction\u2019 (Arma de Instruccion Masiva) that he intends to use to battle ignorance and spread knowledge.<\/p>\n

Lemesoff converted a 1979 Ford Falcon into a bizarre tank-like vehicle complete with a swiveling turret, a non-functioning gun, and space to store about 900 books \u2013 inside and outside of the vehicle.<\/p>\n

A video about the project made by 7Up shows him driving through the streets of Buenos Aires and delivering books to young and old alike.
