COMMENTS: Several simple shell scripts are used to extract above info from raw data, which
          is comprised of ftp xfer logs and other hand entered text files, but first raw 
          data files have to be thoroughly examined for duplications, and other questionable 
          entries. The data is  then entered into the above spread sheet.

NOTE: There've been some attempts over the years to streamline this procedure, but due to the
      variances in the data, and other complexities, it's still a cumbersome task.
