Looks good -- I _think_ I almost understand what I'm seeing... :-)

I hope someone does this.  If nothing else, maybe even just an
accompanying script or some text overlay during the animation would
be nice.

Hopefully you/we can clarify the issue for knuckle-dragging "layer 2"
guys like me that have been trained into the "don't drop packets"
mentality.  Some of the recent writings have been good for this too.
But a lot of the posts on this list and the blogs have amounted to a
URL with a comment like "the problem here is obvious" -- leaving me
to squint and scratch my head...

Given my associations with Linux and wireless, I am interested in
working on this problem.  Still, I (and presumably others) may need
some hand-holding!
