It's the weekend. Guess what I found:

In Excel 97 (I presume only on Windows, someone with a Mac and the
latest Excel should try it)

Open a new spreadsheet Hit F5 (go to function) and type X97:L97 in the "reference" box (and hit <enter>), then tab so the box closes and you end up on cell M97.

Now hold down the "Ctrl" and "Shift" keys while clicking once on the
"chart wizard" icon on the menu bar (the blue-yellow-red bar chart icon).

You will be wisked away from the humdrum spreadsheet into a 3D virtual world. Steer with the Mouse, accel / decelerate with the left
and right mouse buttons respectively (and use the up/down arrows to move up and down). Look for a monolith with the programmer's names scrolling by. It's really pretty impressive.

Hit Esc or Ctrl+Shift+Esc to go back to the regularly scheduled
Microsoft environment...
