Thanks for sharing these. The first was my favorite. But I fully admit to be a numbers geek. And seeing the charts "brought to life" was cool.

I liked the last one best - a question I have often asked myself about many different topics!

Speaking of fans, many years ago I was at a medical device trade show where we were exhibiting a stand-alone analyzer which had some pretty fancy electronic innards. As a potential customer walked over to the booth, the president of the company (and brains behind the analyzer), stepped up to begin the demonstration.

He always began by mentioning its quiet operation, and how the only sound you heard was the cooling fan. As he powered the analyzer up, the fan didn't start. Not missing a beat, he said to the customer "Looks like we have one of the new 'Solid-State Fans' in this one", as he just casually proceeded to demonstrate the analyzer.
