The bar next to each date shows how long ago it was said: 6d is days, 4yr is years.

How did Wal-Mart come out of no where in Arkansas to become the powerhouse company of today? What made Sam Walton so successful? This book, published in 1992 shows the secrets of Walton's success. I loved how down to Earth his writing was. The Wal-Mart Sam Walton created is very different than the ruthless one you see today, so even if you're not a big fan of Wal-Mart now, this is a great, insightful read.

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
