    You may find the larger graphs at the end of the article within the appendix helpful.

    A little better - I went right to the end but no names and no comparative analysis - even as an "anonymous" comparison of design thoughts and a scattering of dots so nothing to compare from one graph to another - dot density indicates where the "popular market" seems to be aiming which for cats is mostly backwards in USA because of the need to fit in a marina pen and carry tons of extra baggage labelled as LUXURY necessities for the stupid buyers safety and comfort at the next marina..... Very disappointing overall....
