The Flick -- A term used by air traffic controllers to describe a mental model representing the current and future positions of air traffic in a section of airspace. Controllers visualize the paths of multiple aircraft in terms of position, altitude, trajectory and speed. Controllers also refer to this as "having the picture." But the picture moves -- like a movie -- hence the term “the flick.”

Great Minds -- What?
Just sayin’...
”Meanwhile, the nation is cutting back on funding child care, and public schools and universities. Call me old fashioned, but I just think it's wrong that a single hedge fund manager earns a billion dollars, when a billion dollars would pay the salaries of about 20,000 teachers.“
That was Robert Reich on Marketplace last evening.
Sound like anybody you know?
Hey, I’m bound to get lucky every once in a while. Robert Reich? Well, he actually has a great mind.
