Actually, I wanted to use the white windows in a 2x2 fashion to get the effect of small panes of glass, but when I tried them the right way around it just looked (...)

They also stack very neatly on top of one another... And like Eric, I've got scads of (...) (24 years ago, 22-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
