Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Though the names may suggest
otherwise, the Parks set (and the "blended" set) weren't part of the
2005 release. I hadn't actually visited Mike's site in a while, and I
must have missed his likely announcement of these additions on
misc.trans****t.road, as I've been away from my newsgroups for several
months.
