<h2>Random Chart</h2>
<p>The chart below is made from randomly generated data.
If it looks strange, try refreshing a few times.

</p>
<p>
The hope is to generate cycles in the data.
The cycles are styled as red to call them out for this example.
This rendering contains what I arrived at as the most reasonable
representation of cycles, featuring a smaller 'lane' at the top
of the chart where cycles travel.

	<h2>Random Chart</h2>
	<p>The chart below is made from randomly generated data.
	If it looks strange, try refreshing a few times.

	</p>
	<p>
	The hope is to generate cycles in the data.
	The cycles are styled as red to call them out for this example.
	This rendering contains what I arrived at as the most reasonable
	representation of cycles, featuring a smaller 'lane' at the top
	of the chart where cycles travel.
