Hi, All I am going to give a presentation to non-nuts, and in one of the slides I touch on Q - not wanting to spend more than a sentence or two on the subject, I wonder if the following analogy works:
"A quality long-stemmed, thin-walled wine glass will ring for a long time after we give it a little tap - this is high Q. A thick-walled, stubby milk glass will barely ring at all, just a dull "plink" - this is low Q. The energy we put in dies out very quickly." As I am sure is embarrassingly evident, I have a rather tentative grip on the subject myself..
