Your comment below sounds like the kind of thing the Free Republic was created for.  I have some skill in categorizing things and creating HTML versions.  And your comment is right on!  Do you have an example of the kind of presentation you are talking about?

Not that I can share because the information is sensitive and confidential but I will say this. I prepare analytical reports and executive summaries after conducting investigations so I gather a LOT of facts. Sometimes my cases are so big I have to keep track of a massive amount of information so I use either databases or spreadsheets. This helps me understand the intel I've developed out of all the information so I can process it and understand what I've learned. Having said all that the human brain is much better at processing information if it's put into categories or summarized. There has to be an order to it or it just shuts down. Or at least that's my experience.

Tables are very effective at summarizing the info in an easy to read format especially if you lay it out with columns that migh say something like "Date of Action", "Action by Clintons" then something like "Result". This is just one example but simplification with links to a more detailed explanation if they want to look works good. I often bookmark the detail explanations or footnotes in my report and put a hyperlink in the table where they can click and go to it in a document.

Before you embark on that journey I suggest you look to see if someone else has already done it. If they have tell them you want to help assist their efforts and become a researcher or assistant for them. They usually won't mind at all...: )
