At around 20min (paused at 20:31, still there) Stef talks about income by race and the previous graph (income by ferg/mo/us) is still there. Is this an oversight? I did a bit of a "double-take" there, if you know what I mean...w Stef looking to the right as if the data he's speaking of is right there...
