What I tried to do was give some background and introduce some terms.
In hindsight I should probably have cut down on the terminology
and directly translate that into CSG language.

No, I am a lousy writer :( I want to stress again that whatever
I wrote, or whatever the thesis is about, you should only
take it as an inspiration to create an image and not try
to capture the essence of a whole thesis in just one image
(that is impossible). Aside: I included 3 weeks in which
a couple of POVers could communicate with us and refine
their image before we make a final selection.

Shay came up with http://tinyurl.com/2g67s that contains
beatiful glowing images of connexins, I put an pen drawing in
a post yesterday (and was rightly flamed by ABX for that,
so I will not repeat that).

I cannot remember having seen any junk from you, they were all
nice pieces of work IIRC. Then again, perhaps you did not
publish the other ones ;)

Thanks for your reply anyway,
