By "Mist", I meant "Mist" - the unpleasant smelling liquid produced by people suffering from "stomach" flu, a disease apparently not really related to influenza.

Oh, I see. "Stomach flu" is indeed not related at all to influenza.

So, it's Lance's turn then.

Official reported incidents involving UFOs (by government department) Blue is USAF, Green is the US Marines, NASA is Yellow (in flames), Grey is CIA, Black is black ops...

Wow, close enough. Marines are light green, Army is dark green, Teal is the Navy. How did you get that so quickly?

The graph quantifies something that I've discussed elsewhere recently.

Llama fecundity according to pasture type. bright green is pastureland, dark green is jungle, brown is desert, aqua and blue are mirages, black is Gulf of Mexico after the deep water horizon spill, grey is the back paddock behind Area 51.

You're getting even with me for all the chemtrail stuff in Arneb's graph, aren't you?

In the US. Based on your comment, I've actually been able to find the graph.

Ok, I'll wait for the Boss' confirmation - Funnily, I thought that "oin the first run" implies "in the U.S.", but that may not be necessarily so...

I hadn't really thought about that, but I suppose that's true.

They do advertise television shows here as appearing "The Same Day as the US!" which is a bit odd, as we are 12 hours ahead of New York, and 15 hours ahead of Los Angeles. Does that mean we actually get them before the US?

Yup, that's exactly right.

There are more and more shows that play globally these days, so I guess they would have to play elsewhere before here. And there are several joint venture shows that play elsewhere weeks before they make it to the US.

I don't know, but I do know that "Le Beaujaulais Nouveau Est Arrivé" is a big thing in Japan because they DO get to taste it earlier than almost everyone else. :D

Those breaking points seem odd. Anything at all to do with income?

Extremely indirectly, maybe, but don''t pursue it.

The breaking points sure are odd, but they derive from some physical measure. Broadly speaking, we semm to be dealing with a logarithmic quantity. 8)

Not for the game, I left the labels intact. I just love this graph and figured this was as good a place as any to share it. It shows how cases of Autism correlate with the rise in organic food sales.

Well this is easy, it's the membership of the Ulluminati R Us from it's radical beginnings in the early years and the terrible persecutions of the nineties which culminated in the surge of power and prosperity as the mellenials jumped on board.
