Well, yes, and no. BURPS for the basic structure. To make up the vast
majority of the mass. But lots of other bricks (green, grey, dark grey, brown,
black) to give it a more random and natural feel. Trees, shrubs, vines, and
various plants scattered around. (As far as planning, I volunteered to this at
GRGATS.)

That is a good point. But I was wondering that if it was closer to the folks
inside the display, then they could point to the flyers and catalogs easier
than if it was far away. But as far as running Steve's 8-wides, that is
something I am considering (see first post of this topic) and am looking for
details on, so my mountain will accomidate their size. Also as to your comment
about not much in the corners, I might mention that our corners at GRGATS were
pretty busy, with my factory in one, Chris' airport in another and Tony
Hedglen's Office complex and house in the others.
