I don't know where you get these ideas, Doc. I am talking about diagrams and
tables, not a comic book format. Diagrams can include branches (and still be
readable). Yes, the entries in the diagrams and tables would have to be
consistent and correct, and you'd see regular text paragraphs as
introductions. So writing would still play a role. But the role would be
smaller than today's.

>>Phil-
I suspect that you have your tongue firmly planted in your cheek.
A number of years ago the US Navy made some attempts to use a Classics
Comics format...
And of course you have neatly glossed over the text content of the tables
and diagrams.>>
