[DDI-ADG] Aggregate spreadsheet with KM changes

Attached is the latest version of the aggregate data spreadsheet--revised 
the one Ilona just sent out--with the following changes:
- I changed the name of the sheet to be called Aggregate Data, as I think 
that's a better description of what we're describing (ncubes are one aspect 
of the structure).
- I went through the original notes column and fixed a few typos.
- I added a sentence describing each module to the top of the sheet; 
someone suggested also labelling the sheets as such, but I didn't see a way 
to do that concisely; someone else could always try.

And some questions (not enough to justify a notes column):
- On the logical structure sheet, should 7-16 have descriptions?  I don't 
know enough to give it a try.
- On the same sheet, weren't we going to rename line 22 something 
different, as "cohort" has another meaning w/in the survey context?  I 
can't find details in my notes from our meeting when we discussed it ~2 
weeks ago, but I recall Mary mentioning something like subcategory or 
something.

I'll be spending the rest of my time before Tuesday drafting the proposal 
document.  I know J wanted to also finalize the spreadsheet by then, so 
it'll take a fair amount of someone's work to combine/reconcile the notes 
columns (plus deal w/the lingering questions).
