Hi Bec,

As an aside the author of this is one of my former students (and Martina'a) at the University of Washington (Amanda Cox). She left with a M.S. and went to the New York Times as an expert in graphical display of quantitative information.

That is very cool! I love information display myself, and this is such a beautiful example of it.
