I agree with you on 1x1x5s and 1x2x5s, but I've got to disagree with you on
1x6x5s.  They are very useful, especially if they had been used in
Set 6699.  If I hit this set in a certain way, the side wall
would collapse.  :)

I didn't know they had Town Jr. back in '87.

I hope that didn't unduly offend anyone, but seeing that made me think that
maybe LEGO hasn't changed all that much after all...(at least in the
buildings.  I could tell a huge difference even between the Res-Q stuff and
the City Center truck that Mel the NLNLF(1) and I put together...)

Well, I *do* like this set...  :)  Actually, even though the designs are
somewhat similar, this isn't Town Jr.  It uses piece staggering (mostly above
the door), and it was undoubtedly cheaper than it would be if it was Town Jr.
:)  It is kind of hard to appreciate this set if you haven't actually built it.
