(...) Looking at the subtheme, I'd say some are town and some aren't. For example <set:6774 Alpha Team ATV> is fairly typical town, but <set:6771 Ogel Command Striker> is definately a space set.

(...) I just double-checked the Alpha Team set numbers, and noticed that they're in the 677x range. That says they're not necessarily Town (which is 6300-6699) and also that it's probably going to be short-lived. But then again they're almost (...)

Alan hasn't been quite as devilish lately. In fact, he's been lowering rates. I just wish he had lowered them faster. If he had lowered them 2 weeks earlier, he probably could have saved me about $30-$40 month on my mortgage. ben medinets (...)
