Academics, Charts, Presentations

Decades ago we used transparencies and overhead projectors to make a presentation. No PowerPoint. If we presented a curve, it had to have axes labelled and with units.

I have noticed with all the presentation materials that somehow we just get the curve, at least we have axes. Some academic throws up a chart, curve, data set, and then walks around mumbling.

I sat through six of these today and despite the fact that I know whet they are talking about I wonder if they do. Neural networks everywhere whether you need them or not.
