I like...

I think I'd have been real fussy and wanted a straight road (or curve the words somehow) for the last part of the message, "to the manipulation". Just so it fit into the lines etc more.

Took me a while to spot the stats (not sure if I saw them all) and found a few other things.

Cool though. I like seeing images and information/text/graphic design integrated. Reminds me of some of the stuff I see on [link]

thanks for the comment,

I did try curving the text originally to flow with the road but it seemed a little off to me imo so I set it back, looking back now it prob would have looked better to chop the road up and straighten it but I also liked the idea of it curving and showing a turn ahead on this new path.
