Right!

Allan, I generally only need to refer to it a few times. After a few initial comparisons, most the values seem to fall into place with visual comparison. But it does help me to get onto the right value path sooner.

PS: You know, it is kind of weird standing at my computer monitor while working at my easel and looking at a photo of the same in my previous post!
