Mud Lifespan graph.

This is it.  take it as is.  flames to /dev/null so there.

Some inaccuracies may have resulted from duplicate or similar names for
different muds.  Muds of the Tiny*, Teeny*, and Unter* types were selected
for this study.  Aproximately 10 muds were 'dropped' due to name
conflicts which would have taken me too much time to sort out.  An asterix
indicates that that mud appeared in that issue of Scott's mudlist.
Please note that appearing in the mudlist does not guarantee that mud was
up during that time period.

Data from mudlists v1n1 (Nov 1, 1991) through v4n8 (Oct 2, 1992)
(note: v1n9 through v1n12 were unavailable. v1n0 and v4n9 were not used
because I could not obtain a complete copy.)
