I have to agree with Greg on this one. I have an odd collection of castle
and space pieces that are no interest to me which I would gladly swap for
any town parts. While some parts of no value they are extremely valuable to
other collectors and I think that was the point that Todd was originally
trying to make.
I think a simple rule to keep the box interesting would not to allow any
non-decorated regular 1xn or 2xn bricks in it. The life of this experiment
would probably be extended a great deal buy doing this. There may be other
pieces that should be prohibited as well. Instead of ending up with a box
of blue 1x1s, we may end up with a box of blue boat plates instead!

PS: Count me in! I want to be on the list as well but like Larry, my
travel schedule can be somewhat unpredictable so there is a small chance
that I couldn't meet the one week turn around requirement.
