Users want more. Our users did not run out of ideas for
analyses. Indeed the opposite occurred. Often a display
whetted their appetites for further study.
New opportunities arise. Several times, as we showed
result to uninvolved colleagues, we found ourselves with
new data to analyze. For example, we are beginning an
extension to support with spiral displays the management
of battery energy for the University of Minnesotas
successful solar car team.
