I used to know of a software that did hypertext quite well.  But can't
recall it now.  I do think a Hypertext document would be very greatly
useful.  I mean to click on swimming skill read it then find a link to the
swimming table for example right then would be very useful and efficient.
I could do word but I'm sure not everyone had that.  But I'm sure everyone
has some form of basic Text editor :)

I think its just a rule set cleanup and modification.  But richard could
exlain that better.
