George,
How is anyone going to use a select box with 21,000 options? Don't you think
that's too many for someone to look through when making a selection in a
select box?
You should try getting some parameters from the user first and pass those to
the query so you don't have so many options in one box. Have them enter the
category, or maybe some sort of alphabetical search, but do something that
will narrow down the query results. IMHO, you would never want to have more
than 500 options in a select box (as an absolute limit).
