RE: More than 99 indicators needed

My opinion is this (and I am very surprised that no one has suggested
this already):

MAYBE IT IS TIME TO rebuild this application?!?!?!?!?!?

100 indicators is insane. Just my opinion.

It seems to me that perhaps a better (or at least different) way of
building the line might be preferable. Why not build it in (say) a DS
with overlapping fields where needed. Couldn't be any more confusing
than any print line that needs more than 100 indicators!
