Profile of the Line from Massawa to Asmara

As usual, Renato is able to straighten me out on things.  I had mistaken 30% (thirty percent) for 30‰.(thirty per thousand).  To get the grade in percent, divide the numbers below by 10.  Notice that it goes from left to right up the mountain as opposed to left to right the traditional view for east to west.  I will be converting this to a text-graphics form which will load faster and look as pretty as the original.  I converted it to a line drawing format to save space.
