Q: Who, other than a bean counter, would think that bean counters are the
only people who ever use tools to work with numbers? There ARE other

My friend Wayne has used Excel with great results to not only plot data
points for the screen designs we've used in the collimated display
project, but visualize them as well. He also uses it to plot countermap
points for use with the output warping software we use.

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical
minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd
by the clean end.
