Hrm..  Having just completed a rather nasty little algorithm which takes
an LDAP tree of employees and creates an org chart using all sorts of
trees, hashes and directed graphs to get the layout right, I am not sure I
understand how linked lists or trees can be made any more efficient than
simply:

   $node[next] = $foo;
   $node[prev] = $bar;
   $node[data] = 'Test Node';

What exactly do you have in mind here?  A defined datatype so traversal
functions could also be built in?

"trying to use his snowboard"...  That seems like appropriate wording.  ;)
