Barnaby SzymanskiA trend. The data is clear: Harry Heasman set it at ninety-eight in May, Betty Bromage at ninety-seven in August, and now Helga in October.
Barnaby SzymanskiI call that the Heasman Curve.
Vera BullockSo how many data points is that?
Barnaby SzymanskiThree. The data is clear that three is a lot of points. I have them laminated, in fact.
