     I agree to this. Wouldn't it be better, though, to first try the popular
science magazines?
     One can easily capture the imagination of laymen by using pictures of
biomedical models (skulls, chromossomes, proteins) as well as complex
mechanisms.
     I don't know about elsewhere, but here in Finland we got some words about
Rapid Prototyping Technologies in a popular magazine dedicated to health
and care, one of those that women like to read (any comments Elaine?? 8-)
They interviewed a famous artist that had undergone complex surgery, and
the planning of the surgery was done using a RP model of her skull.
