We did some work on improving the range of vehicle tyre tags where we increased the effective range using a mixture of approaches. Visualisation would have helped us a lot. I see the value of this in studying the impact ofthe environment, people, clothing on range and field. John. What a great idea, simple and effective.

I like this way of "feeling" physics, instead of the usual modeling. Mixing the designer's approach with the scientific processes is a way for the future. BUT ! WTF ? All of that for a symbol ? Really ? You got lost in your way didn't you ? If that was what you were looking for you could have asked a junior physicist to draw it for you... (I could get even more crazy here but I won't because I really like the way you handled this in the first place....still ..."mystification"... come on guys !) To finish on a positive thought; I admit it : I am jealous, you have the dream job... and I am disgusted because I get the feeling that you don't get everything you might get out of it.
