I think we're ****way**** overdue for some good graphics.  Video clips, photos, line drawings - all of it.  We know enough now to know that words alone aren't enough, and a lot of our graphics are years behind our words.

The good part is, this profession is new enough and changing fast enough that quality doesn't have to be all that high.  Which means *any* of us can do it, if we get our cameras out...

A reminder to myself.  Sigh.
