I deleted a few for not following the one-per-decade rule; I'm sorry, but the bulk of the entries indicates that was pretty clear; I nearly eliminated some for not doing me the favor of formatting as requested, and will keep that in mind in future FFF compilations; as always, I greatly appreciate your participation
