Hey, Ken -- I remember that crate -- you posted it or something like it a while ago. And it looks cool. My comment was meant to suggest that they just are too nicely piled up. Perfectly square relative to each other. Think about the big burly, smelly guys who just kind of heave them up on the dock. They're not going to take the time to make sure all the edges are perfectly aligned with each other.... (Nice touch with the "this side up" pointing down, by the way. Very funny!) - Dex
