  Re: Help! I'm sinking into the Dark Ages!
 
(...) This is really a good idea that I think probably anybody will benefit from. Sorting and storing all your pieces in separate containers is counterproductive, as you will have to get out a large number of boxes before you can even start (...) (25 years ago, 25-May-00, to lugnet.general)
