Math Ahead! Proceed With Caution

I sent Spinfly a computer drawing
that illustrates what I was trying
to describe in my "Infinity" post below.

For those of you with math anxiety,
may I suggest you just look at it and
let any thoughts that surface just slide
right on by. In fact, do this 20 minutes
a day, every day until further notice.

See you in Nirvana (sans ego, and
false persona, of course).

Spinfly, can you put that picture up here with this post? Or do you have to start a new one? Just curious.

Nice, Spinny, thanks. Does the drawing make sense to you? Do you get what I'm doing? Do you, Polyman?

Math is a last resort, but sometimes you know....
How's this, I guarantee I will never send in any calculus.

(...but Butch might!)

Just in case you don't want to go below to the old "infinity" post, this drawing illustrates in a (fractalish) way that the circumference and the diameter of a circle are equal, instead of using the usual formula where the circumgerence equals the diameter times pi.

No, I don't get it. Were you out of cigarettes?
