Hehheh...  OK, maybe I'll mix up _some_ of it, if it's quick & easy.
There's a bag of a couple dozen white & red classic space minifigs, for
example -- those could happily be scattered among different bags; those
came in zillions of different sets.  But things like the classic red 70's
windows -- I'd never have a clear conscience if those didn't stay together.

For the windows, you should just skip the general-circulation box, and send
them directly to Gary Istok.

For other bags, you might mix them by cutting (so to speak) the bags in
half, and mixing the half-lots in with other half-lots.  That would provide
some balance between sorting and variety.

Steve has the right idea, I would probably replace them with tiles, arches, some
steep sloped bricks,  the 2x2 regular inverse sloped corner bricks, etc.
Nothing shakes the rare stuff out of my inventory faster than classic windows.

No wait ......(suddenly hit with a pang of guilt).  Maybe other people should be
given a chance at the classic windows first.  After all I got a 20 year head
start on collecting them.

Todd, just do what you feel is fair.
