First, thanks a lot Jim!!! Really!!!!

I still prefer this picture since it "shows" that branch_b is
off branch_a, even though WE all know now that they're equivalent.

OK, what if we modify it slightly to go along with the explanation I
posted
earlier:

+-----+    +-----+    +----------+
| 1.1 |----| 1.2 |----|   1.3    |---- ...
+-----+    +-----+    | branch_a |
                      | branch_b |
                      +----------+

Better? Worse?
