[AGL] dreary at the time but nice to visualize

Mike== those xeroxes were passed around by Tary Owens at the first ghetto
nostalgia party a few years back. I could see how some of the named perps
might object a little to having their names posted, let's say if they were
running for office or in a high-security position, but at this point almost
all the named have either died, retired, or left the country, so posting
the documents somewhere shouldn't be upsetting to anyone.
