Oh no, are you trying to take over as resident polyhedron nut? ;)

I caught the bug in elementary school, you would think I would be over 
it by now.

very nice - would be nicer if you posted the source though, and tried to
avoid primary colours - jpeg hates them :)

I just visited your web site David, and I think I understand your 
feelings better now.  You see yourself as the alpha male when it comes 
to polyhedra.  "shapes2.inc" isn't good enough for you.  I wrote my own 
include files, and I plan to one up your dodecahedron snowflake while 
you work on your train.

See, I am such a math geek, it doesn't matter if meshpoly.inc actually
serves some useful purpose...

See, I'm on the school math league and we kick ass consistently and
thoroughly! But I cannot claim alpha male of that group.

And I'd like to see you try and one-up my isosurface menger sponge!
Mwuhahahaha! Hmm, I should shut up before you actually do.

Oh well, I still have my hollow Lego dome and my stellations of the
icosahedron.

I just have to get Warp out of the way and my plans will be complete...

It's more than Warp if you count people that don't participate in the
newsgroups.  You probably already know of these, but both
http://www.physics.orst.edu/~bulatov/polyhedra/index.html
http://www.georgehart.com/pavilion.html have some very impressive Pov
polyhedra.  And to think that I once thought of myself as a math geek!

I had both of these bookmarked already. :O

I have already calculated the vertexes of a stellated icosahedron, I could
make one at any time.  I was more interested in making macros for spaceframes
and geodesics next though.  Where do you go to school?
