Abstract
A display method for time-ordered dynamic lists of data including a window for a computer display having a present portion and a past portion. The present portion contains only current data. Any and all historic data is contained in the past portion. The past portion is of a specified length but may be variable and can be reviewed by the user as desired. Whenever the present portion and the past portion of the window do not represent a continuous list of data from the current data to the historic data, a visible indicator is provided to notify the user of this discontinuity.
