Replying to @johncutlefish
The biggest problem with the Tetris / Gantt chart, IMO, is that it regularly lies by representing an ideal state. As Reality slowly overtakes the ideal, the inaccuracy of the estimate becomes apparent. Sadly Stakeholders have tendencies to recall the lying, pretty diagrams.

Do you have to produce some ridiculous report, Gantt chart, etc.? Add up the total cost of producing these things (and be sure to include a load factor, not just salary, opportunity cost, cost of delay, etc). Then head every report with a price tag in 20-point boldface type.
