What about removing some items from "Technic"?  Like make some new categories,
such as axles, beams, and gears?  Personally I think the "Technic" category is
to big and varied.  Motors and battery boxes and such could go into electric,
and misc. technic elements would stay in "Technic".  Your thoughts?

Here's another list, just for Technic, and including the second word in
each part's name:

Category                      Parts  New Category
Technic Angle                    11  Connector
Technic Axle                     17  Axle
Technic Ball                      1  Gear
Technic Brick                    11  Beam
Technic Bush                      4  ? Gear, Connector, Axle ?
Technic Cam                       1  Liftarm
Technic Connector                 3  Connector
Technic Differential              2  Gear
Technic Engine                    5  Technic Engine (Car?)
Technic Forklift                  1  Beam
Technic Friction                  1  Connector
Technic Gear                     13  Gear
Technic Gearbox                   1  Gear
Technic Handle                    1
Technic Helicopter                1  ? Connector
Technic Hook                      1
Technic Large                     1  Wheel
Technic Liftarm                   9  Liftarm
Technic Link                      3  Axle ?
Technic Motorcycle                1  ?
Technic Pin                       7  Connector
Technic Plate                     7  Technic Plate ?
Technic Pole                      1  Connector
Technic Rotor                     3  Technic Plate ?
Technic Shock                     2  ?
Technic Ski                       1  Minifig
Technic Steering                  8
Technic Triangle                  1  Liftarm
Technic Turntable                 2  Gear
Technic Universal (Joint)         3  Connector
Technic Wedge                     2  Wheel
Technic Wing                      2  Slope
Technic Worm                      1  Gear

Note to anyone not familiar with the LDraw names for Technic parts: the
above list may be misleading, because the names are not all formatted in a
clean hierarchical categorization mode.  For example, "Technic Gear"
includes several gears, a 'gear block', and some racks.
