I've never used my LinkedList object for this purpose,
but I have *thought* about doing so several times. Beau
Leeger at RSI told me he put about 100000 items on a linked
list once and it was still extremely fast. (Although
probably NOT as fast as ordering a string array.)
But you might look at it. It has methods already available
for re-ordering the items on the list.
