Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

I think someone yesterday was talking about souls, so I thought I'd share a couple of articles on the subject. I came across the theory in the second article through no less than James Marsters at a panel at a local comic con:

OTOneH, Quantum Theory Won’t Save the Soul.

OTOH, Penrose-Hameroff Theory of Quantum Counciousness

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That second link produces a 404 (not found) error.

Jesse - make the locations your rows, and the measures the columns, grouped by quarter (I wish I could draw a picture to make this clearer). Then Insert Clustered Bar gives you exactly what you are describing. ETA: wait, no it doesn't.

{Should I admit that I don't really understand the Angel quote? It never made sense to me. I don't want to be shunned. Like I said, moral philosophy is hard}

{That Gunn quote about not knowing which moment is important, that one I'm into}

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thank you! That is very close. I'm guessing the original wasn't actually made in Excel.

I flipped the axes and got even closer, but I'm now 90% sure the original was made in something more powerful than Excel.

Measures as your rows, 3 quarters for each location as columns, insert column chart.

Like B1=Location 1, E1=Location 2; B2-Q1, C2=Q2, D2=Q3,E2=Q1 etc; A3=Measure1, A4=Measure 2 for labels

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

There's something more powerful than Excel? (faints)

Ahhh! Thank you!

Why was that more fun than doing my own work (also messing around in Excel)?

ETA although really truly my work right now is "waiting for this report to update so I can use the data"

You totally saved my life!
