"How did I get here?" <How did I get wrote

My machine names are in the first column in a spreadsheet. I need to find
or
flag in some way, those instances in which a machine name in one row
is followed by the same name appearing again in the next row's first
column.


It would be fine (but not necessary) to reveal this by deleting all other
rows
that do not repeat in this way.

Thanks,
