I saw that info a bit ago. I guess since it was almost working the first
way, I assumed the array was correctly constructed.

I saw that n and n+1 stuff... OK, I'm looking at it again and it is tick
_intervals_. I think I still need TICKV since I want the first tick at 0,
not -5. How would it know to start there otherwise?
