Each column is a stretch of time in which the same views came up; a new column starts when one appears or goes quiet. Quiet means nothing on it in our sources for that stretch, which is not the same as a change of mind; Dropped means they said they no longer hold it; tap the card for which claim and when. Revised means the view carries on but one of its claims was dropped. Each row is one view, in the same place all the way along. The number is how many claims in that stretch; we hold 3 in 2001, 0 in 2002, 0 in 2003, 1 in 2004, 0 in 2005, 0 in 2006, 0 in 2007, 0 in 2008, 1 in 2009.
