So it begins.  Be warned, all, that counter storage is a RELIGION.  There are 
no "best ways", there is only "the way [your name here] does it."  People 
will be influenced by coolness, expense, accessibility, and what their 
friends tell them.  But the bottom line is, once you store them it's REALLY 
HARD to convince yourself that there's a better way to store them somewhere 
else.

I've suffered through years of debate on how best to store the thousands of 
counters that come with ASL.  There's some great solutions out there, but I 
don't know many people that will admit they are wrong, scrap their current 
system, and adopt a new one.

Words of advice, Jim -- imagine what would happen to your plastic drawers if 
they got knocked over.  Gamers are often a ham-fisted lot, and I've seen 
worse.  Also imagine what will happen when CC#87 comes out, and we'll have 
multiple categories of figures (player characters, monsters, six railroads, 
Grimme's boys, the Mexican Army, Injuns, all the Gomorra factions, a giant 
Steam Tarantula, and so on).
