We have collected data on thousands of galaxies within 250 clusters to create a reliable picture of the luminous mass distribution in a large portion of our Universe. The clusters we have targeted are rich clusters with more than 50 bright member galaxies (Abell 1958 richness classes R >= 1). This presentation covers the results of some of the first analysis efforts using this largest (over 550 clusters, including those observed by others) complete sample of clusters for which accurate redshift distances are known. The analyses include studies of the power spectrum and two-point correlation function of the sample that confirm a strong large-scale structure signal and indicate minimal effects of projection on the reliability of the sample for the purpose of tracing large-scale structure. In addition, results will be presented from an initial study of a dozen clusters with wide-angle-tail sources and another study of a similar number of cooling flow clusters, and in each case indications of environmental effects were strong, even though the numbers were small.
