Do my eyes deceive me?  Is Mr. Plain Text Rogers actually using colored html :-0

Yeah.  I thought I'd try it out. Probably a one-off, though.

 
I think you hit upon the problem "simple list". 

No, the problem is "mission creep".  This thread started out with Rich's
request that folks add a quick summary of their rotary configuration to
their emails.  I suggested that a one-line pointer to a web-site would
be a more bandwidth-efficient way of conveying the information.  In the
meantime, Ed had already posted a table of his configuration, with even
more info than Rich had initially suggested. 

What it comes down to is that the database can only tell us that "this
works, in this context"; change anything, and it may be that none of it
will work anymore - probably not that severe, but possibly.

Anyway, if folks want to send me their data, based on this modified
version of Ed's list:

           Tail #:   (if you have one - this will be use as the "key" to your entry; otherwise I'll use some form of your name, or a nickname if you  provide it.)
          Builder:  
Engine/Model/Year:  
 Source Condition:   {New/Rebuilt(by whom)/Salvaged}
    Modifications:  
           Intake:  
          Exhaust:  
    PSRU/Re-Drive:  
   Engine Control:   (factory ECU/aftermarket ECU(whose)/mags/points-and-condenser/???)
       Fuel Pumps:  
             Prop:  
   Cooling System:  
       Oil System:  
     Installation:   (plugs up/conventional/???)
            Power:   (specify whether empirical or gues-timated)
      First Flown:  
       Total Time:  
         Platform:   (your aircraft)
