Using the same theory that Neil Peart used on the first two, I went through
the remaining albums and picked out all the songs that was played in concert.
I nixed out some of the one-time played songs from the past tours
("Virtuality", etc.). After getting it down to three songs per album (as
with RETRO.. I & II), I then charted each songs position in the set list, on
every tour since it's debut.
From there, it was just placing the songs in the order of song position.
There was a few more little things that went into this (like what if two
songs had the same position), but it all came out. "Scars" and "Ceiling
Unlimited" both were played as the 16th song on their respective tours.
Since "Scars" came out first, it came before "Ceiling Unlimited". These were the only two songs that were like that. Everything else fell into place.
Dreamline
Stick It Out
Driven
Roll The Bones
Earthshine
Animate
Bravado
Superconductor
Show Don't Tell
One Little Victory
Test For Echo
Scars
Ceiling Unlimited
Resist
Leave That Thing Alone
Here is my working chart. The numbers after the titles are the song
positions, as taken from the Power Windows website. Yes, there are some
songs not listed, but I didn't have any intention of putting them on this
compilation.

Hey 1001001!
Firstly, welcome aboard. Second, give me a chance to lift the lid on the top of my head and let some of the smoke clear away and I'll get right back to you with a reply. Groovy system, btw. Good to see another Ohioan with more on his mind than "Burger King"!
(Man, Burger King sounds pretty good, now that I mention it )
