OK, so add some breathless text about the thrill of seeing patterns 
from field research emerge in an affinity diagram, or the flashes of 
insight into our users' mental models we get when we build paper 
prototypes with them, or the "aha!" moments during usability tests 
that transform a design for the better. The passion is there, tucked 
between the pictures ;-)
