I have some specific things in mind that I'd like to suggest that we do. However, if by random collision of particles, some other interesting things happen instead, I'll be just as happy. Especially if they involve processor architecture in some way. :)
I think that we should strive, however, to limit the number of different things we do, and we should all be willing to compromise for the sake of accomplishing SOMETHING. Both industry and grad school have taught me that FOCUS is principle number one. It's harder when you have a toddler running around (that's literal in my case, but for some people, it could represent bikeshedders), but that just means you have to also have good time management. :) So let's say we decide to do the simulator I mentioned, and let's say that someone posts code before I do. Then if they made a decision counter to what I suggested or had in mind, I'm just going to have to live with it and move on.
