Well, some theories have it that the "true set" actually resides in the
instructions, which is why it is very important to keep them. Others say that
each piece lends its own unique influence to a model, thereby making it
different than anything pieces apart or together. And still others say that the
model truly only resides in the mind of its assembler/maker/designer, and the
pieces are merely an expression or a vessel of the "true set", which is why
MOC's have their own identity as well.
I'd like my second cup of coffee now, please... :)

Actually, he went straight to... well, the hands of my 2 year old. Besides, it
wasn't vicious - it was "cathartic" ;-)
