This reminds me of a perennial problem: finding muliti-colored wire 
at a decent price. Years ago a friend who worked for a telephone 
system company gave me a huge ball of leftover wire that has lasted 
me until now. Unfortunately it's almost gone, and I don't see as many 
colors in the Mouser catalog. It would be nice to have at least 8-10 
colors in both solid and stranded, but unless you're buying huge 
spools the price is prohibitive.

Writing FAQ's is a good idea, any way we could start a co-op for 
stuff like this?
