Has anyone heard of this? How would one create such a page? What software
would we use? Anyone made one? What software did you use?

Sincerely,

:Somewhere, I read about a website that has a function similar to a currency
:converter.  Apparently you give it a price, type in a date, and it adjusts
:for inflation and gives you the figure that the price would be in that
:year's money.  Has anyone run across this site?
:
:Failing that, I've been told that a very rough rule of thumb for converting
:19th century prices to today's money is to multiply by 33.  Any opinions?
