Nice.  The Graphs are apparently drawn by the server.  It would be cool 
if they were drawn on the client, allowing the interactive feel of much 
of the rest of the site. Is there a way to draw such a Graph using only 
ECMAScript?  Java could do this, but would be heavier (and may be more 
work to support).

So, a site is either wanted or not.  However, the page shows an ordered 
(numbered) list.  Is the order meaningful?  If so, what does it mean?
