Larry & All,

It might be, it stands at 6 large gray baseplates! It is one of my most
ambitious LEGO projects I have ever attempted, and it eats money like a
black hole!

Here is a link to it, it is a little outdated now, but not that much, it
also wraps, so cut and paste:

http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Station/3372/Creations/Shell-Station/shell-station-index.htm

Or go to the Creations page, which needs major updating, here is that:

You don't need to buy it, Larry, I can run you off a few copies. I basically
took Word, I bought some Avery 8660 clear address labels, and they seem to
work really well. The printer I have here at work is excellent, a HP DeskJet
1120C. Here is a link for what I have, it seems to crash whenver I put AMy's
scan of a SHell logo in for some reason, I don't know why, I might have to
go to another sheet, it has some memory problems!

Err, that's correct. I will get those printed out, and do an update. Do I
have that document here? Doubtful! Does anyone have it that can e-mail it to
me, so I don't have to find it at home? ; )

I can do it, no problem there.

We need them, and will bring it, and we have a website this time! : )
