If you'd like a higher resolution version to show to your class, I can send you one- just message me email, server, or mailing info. You can also look for it on the supplemental DVD of the new MBOC book, but I think that version is really grainy.

I agree. As a high school biology teacher, I could not help but point it out. I did love the creativity. When I saw it the first time, I thought "Why hasn't anyone done this before!" I am definitely using it in my classes.

Haha.. details, details! I think the swimming pool might have gotten a bit crowded :)
Heck, why not go for a tetraploid or hexaploid division?

My only critique is that there should be an even number of chromosomes for this to be accurate. In mitosis, a diploid cell divides into two diploid cells. All diploid cells have an even number of chromosomes. This would resemble meiosis 2, but other than that this was amazingly creative.
