“With some other technologies in the high-tech world, you can actually very accurately simulate it on the computer and know what you're building before you build it. In RF, you can't do that. You're not relying on the software to do the work for you. It's really the engineer's brainpower.”

“We believe that the avoidance-maneuver tests we conduct provide consistent results and closely simulate a read-world situation in which a driver needs to suddenly steer around an obstacle in the road. In our view the tests are repeatable and valid.”

“At $7 billion annually, video games are larger than the film industry. Technologies like simulations used by the military are a booming area.”

“[the crew has been "killed" in a simulator accident] Jim Lovell: Well, Deke; if I had a dollar for every time I've been killed in that thing, I wouldn't have to work for you. We'll get it together by launch time.”

“ZEUS takes the relative output of the simulation and performs an objective analysis of statistical significance and skill sensitivity. There is simply not a more accurate way to assess a critical play-calling decision in football.”

“[Infantry boot camp was so effective that Dye organized POW simulation exercises as well.] We made all the actors take their shoes off, put 'em around their neck and walk 2 miles to the camp, ... In the camp, the actors would only speak Japanese to them -- no English at all -- because we wanted the actors to understand that feeling where you've got somebody screaming at you in Japanese, which I think would be terrifying.”
