I honestly think that when technology allows us to search all the
information in the world, to hold a more than thousand movies on a single
hard disk, to create computer-animated movies, and to translate
documents from Chinese to Spanish (I just did this yesterday... Don't
ask...) this sort of instrument simulation is NOT beyond our grasp.
I don't think it's trivial - or even easy. But I wish someone did it -
as free software of course...

computer-generated movies are still not 100% realistic looking - but are
already good enough that people pay to watch. In some cases they are
even more realistic than the real thing (e.g., for special effects).

Usually, yes. In some rare cases (like the message you refer to) I choose a
specific one which I think is relevant :-)
