I'm sure the brown background
will change, too... given time.

With all this rain the weeds will soon be pushing though to return the
greenness to this pleasant land ;-)

How do they indicate speed? The web uses different sized arrows but
that won't work in the 3d view will it...

The arrows were animated - they moved! It looked like a first attempt
to do it, to me - only partially successful. I'm sure they'll try
again though and it makes me wonder what other things they can do with
the new system - probably more than we think, when they've learned all
the ins and outs of it. We can but live in hope.
