Perhaps an idea for presenting bufferbloat visually? Draw a picture of the
space around the Earth, with circles around the earth whose diameters are
proportional to bufferbloat-induced equivalent RTT across different
ISP links, or different consumer hardware, etc. "Bufferbloat puts New York
on the far side of the moon!" might be a tagline to get people's attention ;)

cheers,
