Just for fun: Try charting this...

This was a new one on me -
What I would like to know is the data of phone calls made to NORAD about Santa's current whereabouts...(smile), and then teasing out Santa's rate of behavior among 1.8 billion children. (One suggestion is using a MONTHLY per month CHART adapted to be an HOURLY per hour chart. (See below))




1 day, 1 hour, something minutes and something seconds (countdown in progress).

Happy holidays.

"...It is best to relabel the monthly per month [Mpmon-3EC, MONTHLY per month CHART] charts because the base six of its vertical time lines  gives useful standard celerations.

HOURLY per hour chart has each vertical time line stand for one hour.  The first four thicker period lines then indicate 6,  12, 18, and 24 hours (one day).  The full SC chart then covers 5 successive calendar days by hours. 
The standard celerations are per 6 hours.

TEN MINUTELY per ten minute chart has each vertical time line stand for ten minutes.  The first four thicker period lines then indicate 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours.  The full SC chart then covers 20 hours.
The standard celerations are per hour...

Note that locating the possible source of high and low and frequency rhythms is not a functional analysis.  It is merely a TEMPORAL association.  You can not say anything is a reinforcer from a time analysis alone.  You must record its functional effects by removing it and replacing it and or changing its magnitude.  Anything less is merely a sketch, one of many possible stories.
