This little formula book is a standard reference for any plasma physist and so contains lots of scary looking formulae. The interesting thing is unlike most simplified versions of the diagram such as the NASA one below it includes plasma focus devices at the top right corner showing they achieve the highest density/temperature combination.

Maybe what we need is a new updated version of this diagram with thumbnails of flames, lamps, lightning, and where ITER, NIF and FF-1 stand. Hopefully putting focus fusion ahead of where the competition are. Publish it under creative commons and plaster links to it all over the place.
