Hi,

I have implemented a small perl program to sort the cities via this
formula.
If anybody wants to use it, here it is.

The expected format is approximately

city::year:population
city::year:population
...
"city",
"city",
...

Example of the input is in the archive

If anybody wants to place it in ftp or cvs or /dev/null, feel free to do
it.
