I wasn't brainstorming.  I was expressing my opinion.  I was expressing it as
strongly as I thought was appropriate given how strongly I felt about it.  I am
not only concerned with myself about this issue, I don't think that ldraw needs

what have you.  I also don't think that we'd be able to read 1/2 of them as
they'd be in a different language.
