Well, thank heavens for cut and paste!

I include too much customizations in my tables to allow me to generate them
automatically, but although tedious, once I had upgraded one table, it didn't
take all that long to update the rest, even manually. It's not like we've had
to make these modifications often.

The big modification for me was when I reached a sufficient number of members to
need a separate page for each haplogroup. Looking back, I should have had the
foresight to realize there was no point in having them on the same page in the
first place. It's not like individuals in different haplogroups have any
potential for a recent common ancestor. <duhh> Then again, I never suspected,
at the outset, that STRAUB would have so many distinct origins.
