Ah...I smell what you're cooking...
I think that I was thinking about something like one of those '530 hole' 5-pad-per-strip things like from Radio Shack mounted on top of the PICProto18 vs. mounting everything on the PICProto18 itself, like with an multiple pin single in line connector at one end to get access to the PIC's pins.

Oh...and I like rat's nests!!! Some of my 'finest' work!!!
