Gary, if they listened to us and started selling bulk, I wouldn't be surprised to see a
posting from you saying you paid to have new classic window molds made ;-)

Gary, you've got a bigger problem than picking & loading -- you'll have to
go into the manufacturing plant, find the molds, and cast your own classic
windows.  Then you can count and load.

Yeah, I could see me now.  Going to Billund with some pick axes and air hammers and
dismantling part of the company headquarters complex looking for the classic window &
door molds. (They dispose of their old molds by incorporating them into their new
company buildings - that way no one can ever reuse them!)  Although, on second
thought, I could be more than happy with just 10,000 2x2 windows....... (and about
4000 2x2 cylinders .... about 5000 tiles .... and lots and lots of steep sloped
bricks.)
