Tom, I think people want you to. I can just tell. Even if you don't end up
opening it, we'll want to sniff the box.

I want to bring my yellow apartment building which is looking better these
days, office building with plaza restaurant, train station, and a small police
station. I realize that in Legoland police stations outnumber citizens' homes
9 to 1, but I'd like ppl's opinion on it. I sorta like the building, but it
doesn't have to stay a police station if it can be refitted to look like
something else cool (esp. if we have too much police stuff in the layout).
I do have some 6-wide passenger stock which I'll be bringing, but it's not
very good, so I'll be taking notes, and would be happy to hear critiques on
getting it up to par so we can have as much good show-room stock as possible.

That'd be swell.
