Pages

 I get my COVID data on Florida from a report put out by the state government. I download the report every day. Then I cut and paste a table from the report into my Excel spreadsheet. I found it was taking longer and longer to download the document and I was wondering what the problem was. Then suddenly it was much faster to download the report. I compared the new reports with the old reports and I noticed that the old reports contained an appendix with a list of all the past COVID cases with one line per case. That made the old reports 2500 pages long. They finally realized this was not going to work. So in the new reports they didn't include the appendix.
