To me, well designed graphs are a thing of beauty, and when I saw this one from Lawrence Livermore Labs, I fell in love with it (figuratively speaking)

This one below is my favorite graph of all time, because it shows up to five different data points in a brilliant design that intuitively lets you see all of them at a easily and can be understood at a glance!

It describes Napoleon's advance on and retreat from Moscow...I am amazed every time I look at it. His army was destroyed. Amazing.

He left France and advanced on Moscow with 422,000 men and came back with 10,000. Good God.

Ping to Post #43. I remember you mentioning this a while back; never had the pleasure of seeing it myself ‘til now. As usual, you were right.
