Thanks, David. This is information that must be presented again and again. I’m re-posting it to my friends and students. One problem we face, however, is getting it circulating outside the circle of those who already know. In any case, this post is a great service, as it collects a lot of important data into one place and presents it in easily comprehensible forms.
Dear Peter, I’m glad you find the information useful. I’ve just updated the presentation I use in my Principles of Microeconomics course, which is now available from links at the top of the page in 3 formats: pdf, Powerpoint, and Quicktime.

David,
Your Bowdoin classmate Dave Larsson here. Read about this via Steve Randy Waldman a/k/a interfluidity on Twitter. Graphic, in every sense of the word.
Cheers,
