This is great, Bigwull!  I am going to have my students take a look at this the next time we are in the computer lab!  They have such a difficult time with relative sizes.  Perhaps this will help them!
It is better to keep your mouth closed and be thought a fool,
than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Cool, but I showed it to a coworker and I think it made her sick to her stomach. :P

Thank you, Bigwull, for that link. I am a "science guy", and thus truly appreciate such things.
