Interesting. For a file with 51,690 lines at the time this post was created, I'm curious why the file is not ordered with the most recent day at the top of the file.

All that text is heavy to push out of the way when you insert a new line break.

Also, the feeling of accomplishment as the job's entire history whizzes by when you press ctrl+end each morning.
