(...) In theory, I will place one bid to see this in chart or graph form, pictures are so much more easier to follow. Of course that would lead to much sorting, and not such a fan of sorting, so I doubt I could win you over in less time then it (...) (20 years ago, 16-Dec-04, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)
