I didn't mean to say that you were trying to stir up anything.  Guess I forgot

1 - Was joking really.
2 - I did kind of assume that you were suggesting something like what Larry
did, bring 20-40 of a single set to sort out.  I too have a large amount of
stuff unsorted still, but it is a jumbled mess of various parts and themes.
Too much to sort into small containers, rather I need to just get to it in my
Lego room with the entire collection around me.

My Lego mess:

Which maybe 50% of that mixed stuff is sorted now.
