First post, hi all.
WRT the light 447 casualties, i believe the following would be of interest:
Pablo Dreyfus, a 39-year-old Argentine who was travelling with his wife Ana Carolina Rodrigues aboard the doomed flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris,
had worked tirelessly with the Brazilian authorities to stem the flow of arms and ammunition that for years has fuelled the bloody turf wars waged by
drug gangs in Rio's sprawling favelas.
Also travelling with Dreyfus on the doomed flight was his friend and colleague Ronald Dreyer, a Swiss diplomat and co-ordinator of the Geneva
Declaration on Armed Violence who had worked with UN missions in El Salvador, Mozambique, Azerbaijan, Kosovo and Angola. Both men were consultants at
the Small Arms Survey, an independent think tank based at Geneva's Graduate Institute of International Studies. The Survey said on its website that
Dryer had helped mobilise the support of more than 100 countries to the cause of disarmament and development.

I'd like to give Evasius applause for carrying a very well thought out thread. I've downloaded the java version of the graph.
How would i "backdate"? IE tomorrow is the 26 June 2009. How would i find previous "echo" dates to which i could compare?
Thanks!
