If you think this table is hard to read, you're welcome to tackle my printout.
I've tried to minimise errors but, as always, some of the handwriting is hard
to decode, some of the text is hidden by the binding of the original book and
the bottom 2 lines have been missed off my copy. There's also some typing
errors - these will be corrected as I notice them.
