Just wanted to add that I have seen Bill's collection and the set-up he
mentions is really a nice one!  Very neat and much more flexible than most
of us have.  These are not plastic drawers from K-Mart!  This is a
professional system for office use and it really looks great in his shell
room.  This is not a cheap system, but it certainly beats most of what I
have seen.
