	That is the point. Absent the CR/LF any one corrupt data point
can currupt the entire result as everything is shifted only
point. Data number 23 replaces population value 290000 and
everything propagates in error from their on. But with CR/LF a
faulty data line is reported instantly. 

	As I said, rational data set.

	When the POV-team post that rule, I will delate it. Until then,

	Please don't post that! Or are requests one way? 

	If you have a problem, remember the Canadian Bacon grafitti.
