This IBM article on why engineers should be worried about color reminds me of Tufte's work, and indeed he is referenced. The University of Iowa develops IA-FEMesh, a free software toolkit for generating hex meshes for anatomic models. Here are some downloads for FEAST's preprocessors, Grid3D and DiViSoR. KUBRIX, the CAE mesh generator, is available as a Rhino plug-in. The release notes for modeFrontier v4.1.2.

Personas was pretty weird... and completely useless if one has a common name. (Like: the trance DJ in Los Angeles whose salacious email I used to get by mistake -- clearly indicating I'd chosen the wrong profession.) Its result resembled my first credit report, a drunken mishmash of people whom I've never met. Huh, I re-ran it with the same inputs and it came up with a completely different result, but still weird.
p.s. Thank you for the bacon reference.
