I had that. Did not appeal too much, particulaly since electrons do not circle 
and ... how should we depict quarks? ... The original plan was to have 
something for my presentation in Pisa. So I thought about a beardy Tux 
dropping a ball and measuring the time it drops with a sandclock - a homage 
to Gallileo. The sandclock then remained.

Well, at least we have a topic for the maling list now to which everyone can 
contribute.

Cheers,

Steffen
