Nice to see *draw pointgroup* being used. That was a fun addition to make to
Jmol -- the result of a "Bob Challenge" at the Biennial Conference on
Chemical Education a three years ago. (The challenge for the crowd was to
come up with a new idea for Jmol that I would then take on as a challenge to
have implemented before the end of the conference.) Dean Johnston was the
winner with the idea of doing point group analysis, and we spent long nights
that week getting it working. (He was then responsible for keeping me awake
and supplied with nourishment while coding and also supplying the inorganic
chemist's logic for point group assignment. All I had to do was code. It was
great fun.) I only had to make a few minor tweaks on that since. Dean has
done a fabulous job putting it in context with his pages at
http://symmetry.otterbein.edu/.

If nature does not answer first what we want,
it is better to take what answer we get.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
