let's make a distribution list like Pork suggested for running the script on your own ND plus another arbitrary one. may be we should concentrate jan through mar 2002, since these are the months most likely to have seen the lights of initial adjudication? please post the dates that you feel comfortable working on, along with statistical figure for the master spreadsheet as and when it becomes available. i've picked 02-164 (ND Apr 19) and 02-154 (ND Apr 8). i'll post the data as soon as they near completion.
