% This demonstrates that the sorting of citations can be different to the
% bibliography. However, this is not always advisable in case of multiple
% citations in the same year for the same author list. This is because
% extradate (the "a", "b" etc. in "Smith 2010a" and "Smith 2010b" etc.)
% depends on the sorting order and if the sorting order is different
% between citations and bibliography, this can cause confusion.
