Subject: stop writing writing header to one-column list
X-Git-Url: https://code.communitydata.science/covid19.git/commitdiff_plain/72bf7bcd3787ffbda4ec2c47204896483e8069c9?ds=inline;hp=09d171608f699eafe6528325938a892937a65302

stop writing writing header to one-column list

This feels like it's asking for trouble. Description of the contents
of the list is in the filename.
