Animated wire-frame Polyhedron display,
complete with duals and double precision
angles to the polygons. Also technical
program description and 75 pictures.

Just one thing, thats still outstanding.

Big Bertha Thing windows

On the Windows of King's College Remaining Boarded.

Loquitur Discipulus Esuriens.

Professors, in your plan there seems
A something not quite right,
'Tis queer to cherish learning's beams,
By shutting out the light.

While thus we see your windows block'd,
If nobody complains;
Yet everybody must be shock'd,
To see you don't take pains.

And tell me why should bodily
Succumb to mental meat?
Or why should eta, beta, pi,
Be all the pie we eat?

No helluo liborum I,
No literary glutton,
Would veal with Virgil like to try,
With metaphysics, mutton.

Leave us no longer in the lurch,
With Romans, Greeks, and Hindoos;
But give us beef as well as birch,
And board us - not your windows.

NB (2008)
A computer program, called kaleido (cf. [Ha]) and
publicly available at f...@ftp.math.technion.ac.il,
has been developed to compute the data of a uniform
polyhedron (and its dual)...

Kaleido is also capable of computing the vertex and
face coordinates and displaying a rotating wire-frame
image of each polyhedron.

Hi Thomas,
Effective firings took place on 8th and 9th August.
Should be ok today.
Invisible on Google, killfile and filtered usenet feeds.
One website picked up my posting and put it in a webpage
as part of usenet feed. It is out there on unfiltered usenet feeds,
as used by the heavy-weights. Shame about the light-weights.
Strange to say the opposition are all heavy-weights.
Have fun.
Thank you,
Tony Lance
