+## Questions and answers
+
+- Q:  Pretty neat\-- Can you say how this is better than maintaining a
+ gui spreadsheet? 
+ - A: As all things in life, this is preference. org tables are
+ text only and for me this is easier than learning yet another
+ tool (google spreadsheets/MS excel/etc) but totally up to you
+ :)  Also, you can write your formulas in Elisp instead of
+ whatever crippled language you have to use in other
+ spreadsheets.+2 (move the logic to lisp to other package and
+ decouple/reuse it other documents, test it, etc.); Moving around
+ cols + rows - is also way faster than what one can do in GUI
+ spreadsheet apps
+- Q: Is there a way to share the constants between the tables?
+ - A: You can create a constants for the entire buffer, or save
+ them as variables :)
+- Q: Can you please provide the link to the org file?
+ - A: Currently the file is not hosted anywhere. I can put it in a
+ github repo in a bit :)
+- Q:Is there a way to link to a cell in another row in the same table?
+ or other tables?
+ - A:I think i remember reading that it is possible to do the first
+ part of your question. I don\'t think you can do the 2nd part
+ about linking cells from other tables. I\'d recommend double
+ checking w/ the org docs since I can be misremembering things :)
+ - Update: Looks like it is possible -\>
