Hello,
I appreciate the comments of both Mike and Tom in this thread. I was
really just checking to make sure that the addition of essentially new
(i.e. not rare) parts wasn't going to offend anyone. I am anxious to
participate in this expercise, but don't have much in the way of old
curious parts to add to the boxes.
I agree with Mike in that I think if I were to add a set, I would likely
open it and add the entire contents, to allow everyone to pick through the
parts. If possible it would be a themed set, rather than just a Freestyle
or Classic, so that hopefully there might be a part or two there that
someone would want, but without having to buy the entire set.
Thanks again,
Allan

| The nice thing about the Jambalaya project is that each participant is free to do whatever he or she feels comfortable with. A lot of personal ethics goes into the success of this.
