Ok, I've seen the zip function before and it might do the job, but here
I think you're suggesting:

for i in range(len(records)-1):
        for r1, r2 in zip(records[i], records[i+1]):
                if r1.xx == r2.xx
                        .
                        .

The hope was to do the loop without subscripts, and this may or may not
have gotchas because records is a namedtuple:

for r in records(1:):
        .
        .
