Happy to walk you through, you asked for it. :P I won't have time
until later this week/week-end (working on a presentation right now),
but I'll write down the basic concepts and I'll walk you through the
budget then.

Just to give you an idea of the level of detail, for any of the 200+
expense programmes (the leafs in the current flash visualization),
like "Museums", we have a breakdown on categories/subcategories and
(sometimes) a list of money/capital transfers; like this [1].
