Well, that's your private interpretation and I do respect that you're
defending your point of view.
Nevertheless, the problem _I_ am talking about is that the recipients
of your weather system are having hard times to reproduce a test case. 
We're talking about taking results seriously, don't we:

But if it's hardly possible to create a _reproducible_ !!  startup
scenario without juggling through menus and doing visually aided
measurements, then where's your point ?

You are blaming Torsten to post a "highly skewed comparison" to this
list, but on the other hand you have not yet provided a reasonable
means of configuring at least a startup scenario which allows to run a
reproducible setup on different flavours of hardware.

I know real life aviation weather considerably well and I also know
that similar 'startup environments' (landscape, wind, temperature,
humidity, cloud coverage etc.) typically lead to pretty similar "local"
weather- and cloud-scenarios - we're talking about local weather, don't
we !?  Thus, all I'm asking you is to provide a set of startup
parameters for your local weather simulation which you consider as
being suitable to compare the same scenario(s) on different hardware
setups.

BTW, I'd call this the FlightGear way of doing things. Bluntly baming
me for not having thought about the involved implications might be a
sign of unfamiliarity with FlightGear habits (sorry, have to defend my
position as well  ;-)

Cheers,
        Martin.
