In her "How Computer Graphing Programs Change the Graph Design Process: Results of Research on the Fill Pattern Feature," Lee Brasseur begins her analysis by stating that "some of the studies' results are not surprising." I agree. The result I find least surprising, though, is the one she considers most surprising. Namely, "the strong influence that automatically generated fill patterns had on computer designers' decision making."
