Tests, theses and papers

Larry Berlin's last post (Re: John!!!) got me to thinking.
One of the things I'm trying to do is to open doors to 3-D in areas of critical
application. Scientific imaging, medical, stuff like that.
If you've ever tried to convince some expert "know-it-all" of the merits of
some idea he doesn't know at all, then you know what a Herculean task
that can be.
Since tests and testing seems to be a hot item for discussion, I'd like to
throw one more out there:
I've talked to a few of you off line, and none of "us" is aware of any tests
linking memory retention to 3-D (Jim?!?). It seems obvious that such a link
exists.
I've taken tests where they show a bunch of strange little figures. Later I'm
asked to redraw as many from memory as I can. What if these figures
were formed out of wire so that they would have a 3-D element, would the
3-D figures be more memorable than the 2-D equivalents? By how much?
Anybody out there need to write a paper?
