Thanks for the thoughts.  Tim Courtney said the same and said he's going to
try to get TLC to bring the Technic beams into bulk sales...
Yes - I'm headed to LEGO Direct this weekend (more on that later) and I will
mention the beams pack to them and try to find out more about bulk ordering

Hmm...well, I'm not a train guy really, I don't know if the Train Summit

don't even know what I want for my top bulk items yet....got a lot of
thinking to do between now and this weekend :)
