That would help some, though I was trying to have all the windows open
so I could just run down the town list and checking it against your
list. I suppose the better way to to it is to just run down the list,
and then check for dupes later.

Ah, I had assumed you knew about them since that's what's in 6332. You
can see them easier in 6330. Also in 6426.

Another one you may want to add is the various pre-minifig specialty
plates which have rough non-studded areas. Of course phase III is
probably listing all the sets with plain baseplates.
I'd love to see a variety of projects like this. It will probably be
forever before we can get all the sets fully inventoried with a nice
interface, but if people start making these lists of sets with
particular specialty pieces, that would be a real good start (for
example, I have a fairly extensive listing of all the sets with pirate
ship parts or the boat bricks).
